Overview
Qlik Talend Cloud is a cloud-based data integration, quality and governance platform, formed from Qlik's 2023 acquisition of Talend and rebranded from Talend Cloud. It is aimed at data engineering and IT teams that need to move data out of operational systems, including ERPs, into warehouses, lakes and lakehouses to feed analytics, reporting and AI/ML initiatives.
The platform covers data movement and ingestion, change data capture (CDC) for real-time replication, pipeline-based transformation (ETL/ELT), application and API integration, and data warehouse/lakehouse automation. A separate but integrated layer, built on the former Talend Data Fabric, adds data quality, cataloging and lineage so extracted data can be trusted before it reaches BI or AI tools. Qlik markets several hundred prebuilt connectors, including a dedicated connector package for SAP (R/3, S/4HANA, BW, BW/4HANA and native HANA structures such as CDS views), and native connectivity to cloud warehouses including Snowflake, Databricks and the major hyperscalers.
Qlik Talend Cloud is sold as SaaS, replacing the legacy on-premises Talend Studio/Talend Cloud Data Management Platform for most new deployments, though Talend Studio remains available for design-time work that publishes to the cloud service. It sits alongside Qlik's separate analytics product, Qlik Sense (Qlik Cloud Analytics), which consumes the data this platform prepares.

Common use cases
- Extracting SAP ECC/S/4HANA financial and operational data into a cloud warehouse for BI
- Replicating NetSuite or Dynamics 365 data in near-real time via CDC for reporting
- Building governed ELT pipelines from multiple ERPs into a central lakehouse for group-level analytics
- Preparing and cleansing ERP data before it is used to train AI/ML models
- Cataloging and tracking lineage of data extracted from operational systems for audit and compliance
- Modernizing a legacy on-premises Talend Studio deployment onto Qlik's SaaS data integration platform

Strengths & considerations
Strengths
- SAP-certified connector package covering both classic ECC/R3 and S/4HANA plus native BW/HANA structures
- Combines data movement (formerly Talend) with data quality, cataloging and lineage in one platform rather than a pure-play ETL tool
- Shares a vendor and data layer with Qlik Sense, so extracted/governed data can feed directly into Qlik's own BI layer
- Recognized as a Leader in Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Data Integration Tools
