Which Qlik Sense service is responsible for configuration data management?

The Qlik Sense Repository Service (QRS) is indeed the component responsible for configuration data management within the Qlik Sense architecture. This service manages the configuration tasks and stores the metadata necessary for the operation of Qlik Sense. It facilitates the overall management of the Qlik Sense environment, including user access, application management, and the orchestration of data connections. The QRS plays a crucial role in ensuring that the configuration information is consistent, up-to-date, and accessible to other Qlik Sense services.

In contrast, the other services serve different functions within the architecture. The Qlik Sense Engine Service (QIX) is primarily focused on the execution and handling of data models and performs calculations and data processing. The Qlik Sense Scheduler Service (QSS) is responsible for managing tasks like data reloads and schedulers, while the Qlik Sense Proxy Service (QPS) acts as the gateway for communication between clients and the other services, managing user requests and sessions. Each service plays a vital role, but when it comes to configuration data management, the QRS is the dedicated service for this responsibility.
