Aller Anfang ist schwer - das ist (leider) mit Tableau nicht anders. Das Lieblingstool der Analysten weltweit hat allerdings einen großen Vorteil. Versteht man einmal die grundlegenden Funktionsweisen, lassen sich auch komplexe Visualisierungen unglaublich schnell erstellen. Diese Blog-Reihe soll dazu dienen, alle nötigen Grundlagen zu...
Obwohl Kostenoptimierung für IT Infrastruktur schon immer ein Thema war, gab es wahrscheinlich nie einen besseren Zeitpunkt, das eigene Setup und die damit verbundenen operativen Kosten zu hinterfragen. Das ist einem starken Trend geschuldet: Cloud Plattformen und ihren immer besseren und günstigeren Angeboten. Doch wenn...
As 2020 was coming to a close at InterWorks, we were approached with a unique problem from an organization we greatly respect. Amazon has been at the forefront of cloud computing for the better part of my career, and in recent years, they have been...

While minimizing costs for infrastructure has always been a concern, with more companies moving to cloud platforms, there’s never been a better time to re-evaluate the operational costs of applications. Previous InterWorks testing showed Linux performed much better than Windows; however, because the Linux version of...
Question: I have multiple tables on a single Excel sheet. Can Tableau point to a specific range of cells in Excel, or do I need to make new sheets? The Challenge In an ideal situation, you will always want to structure your data so that it is...
As always, Tableau delivers on its newest release. There are plenty of great advancements in Tableau 2020.4, but there are two themes that stand out the most to me: maps and SaaS upgrades. The days are quickly approaching where you’ll feel like one of the...
It goes without saying (though the whole point of this blog is to say it) that 2020 was a year unlike any other. For many of us, what come to mind first are the negative aspects of the year: COVID, wildfires, social injustice, isolation. But...
What a year. A year with so much potential for puns (think: hindsight is 2020, 2020 vision … if only) turned out to be quite different. Rather than sounding like a good joke, many people will forever react to hearing “2020” the same way characters...
A couple of months into my life at InterWorks, I was asked to shadow an Alteryx project for a client. Well, I did not actually end up shadowing; it became more of an Alteryx challenge set by the project lead. “Robin, instead of you just staring...
How the heck does this function work? You know what? I have been working with (and teaching) Tableau for over five years. Have a guess at when I finally understood the PREVIOUS_VALUE function ...
"It doesn't have to look good. It just has to work." I have a client who often says this when I start a new dashboarding project. The statement seems paradoxical because design and functionality are so intertwined. As Laws of UX says, "Users often perceive aesthetically...

2020 has been filled with unexpected surprises. From the global pandemic we find ourselves in to the disappearance of the business travel I had grown to love, the way this year has wrapped up was not at all expected. While the days of traveling to...
We recently partnered with Tableau to give a couple of talks called the Tableau Performance Series. In our first webinar, we talked about what to look for in Tableau Desktop to improve performance, and we finished out with a presentation on Tableau Server itself and...
Another month, another virtual Lunch & Learn in the books! This time, we discussed row-level security in Tableau Desktop. Row-Level Security in Tableau Desktop Row-level security allows you to filter out data from your dashboards based on the user profile accessing your data. This may sound a...
Question: I need to script tabcmd commands but can't leave passwords in plaintext inside scripts! How can I script tabcmd commands securely? The Challenge Tabcmd requires a username and a password passed to it in order to log into a Tableau Server site. While this is fine...
