Qlik Sense Repository Service

The Qlik Sense Repository Service (QRS) manages persistence and synchronization of Qlik Sense apps, licensing, security, and service configuration data. The QRS attaches to a repository database and is needed by all other Qlik Sense services to run and serve Qlik Sense apps. The QRS also manages the synchronization used within multi-node Qlik Sense sites. In addition, the QRS stores the Qlik Sense app structures and the paths to the binary files (that is, the app data stored in the local file system).

Information noteIn a default Qlik Sense installation, the Qlik Sense Repository Service (QRS) depends on the Qlik Sense Repository Database (QRD) to be running. This means that the QRD must be the first Qlik Sense service that starts and that it should be stopped only when restoring a central node as described in Restoring a Qlik Sense site. The rest of the Qlik Sense services can be started in any order.

This section describes the QRS in terms of paths, files, ports, and metrics.
