“We are excited to bring the power of predictive machine learning and AI [artificial intelligence] to the Qlik customer base,” said Mark Dillon, senior vice president of strategy and alliances for Big Squid. “By leveraging the Kraken platform, Qlik customers will be able to help drive more strategic decisions based on their internal and external data for market impact.”
