2016 Iron Viz contestants Russell Spangler, Robert Rouse and winner Curtis Harris recount their experiences at TC16. How does one prepare for those 20 minutes where it's just you and the data? How do the feeder competitions compare? What was their favorite moments AFTER the competition?...
Ah, the weeks after Thanksgiving. Nothing but cold turkey sandwiches and residual guilt from eating so much. Even though this post comes at a time when we're all exceedingly tired of this tasty fowl, I couldn't get an idea for a viz out of my head: Why...
In last article in our Deep Dive on Sets, we will explore how we can use sets inside of a hierarchy. It adds dynamism to your hierarchies, particularly if you nest multiple computed sets into a single hierarchy. Let’s learn how to do it! Hierarchy Overview A...
You have 20 minutes to build a dashboard from scratch with 1.3 billion rows of New York City taxi data. What do you do? Can your database handle the task? Are Tableau extracts the answer? In this webinar, Iron Viz contestant and Tableau Zen Master Robert Rouse discusses...

The last two articles of this Deep Dive are going to focus on some advanced uses of sets. We’ll start by looking at how we can use sets in calculated fields. It doesn’t matter if the set was created manually or if the set is...

Tableau Conference 2016 is officially in the rearview. Forgive us if we're a feeling a bit emotional or nostalgic (we're not crying, YOU'RE crying). But seriously, TC16 didn't disappoint. We had our minds blown by all the new features coming to Tableau and loved connecting...
The first keynote was about vision, but Devs on Stage is all about the features analysts most want to see. Let's dive into what was shown and what you can expect in future Tableau iterations. Analytics Maraki Ketema, an engineer on the Analytics team, was the first...
We’ve created manual sets, and we’ve created computed sets. Now we are going to extend the functionality of our sets once again by using two sets to create a combined set. This allows us to create additional analysis to compare, contrast or even combine the...
In the initial keynote of TC16, Tableau brought the heat. Laying out a grand vision for the next two to three years, Tableau announced many big new features, experiences and even a brand new product code-named "Project MAESTRO." There's was definitely something for everyone, from...
In all of our previous examples of this Deep Dive, we’ve been adding our new sets to the Filters card. That’s filtering our view (as well as limiting the membership available in our filter control as we did in part two). What happens if we...
Computed sets use logic to dynamically update the membership of the set. This is the key distinction between constant sets and computed ones. Changes to the data will change the set itself as it re-computes what gets classified as IN the set and what gets...
Constant sets are sets that once created do not change. If the underlying data changes, the membership of the constant set does not change to reflect these differences. These are also known as manually created sets. In this part of our Deep Dive on sets,...

The idea behind a Deep Dive article series is to spend far more time and energy on mastering a topic than what would be possible inside a traditional learning environment. We’re going to dig really deep into sets over multiple articles with real world use...

When we interview potential new members of our business intelligence team, it’s inevitable that the interviewer ends up asking most of the questions. What sort of projects have you had success on? What types of challenges have you faced and how have you overcome them? If...
As a roving consultant, I’ve always been fascinated by the different paths that people take to get where they’re going. More often than not, they twist and turn in the most unexpected of ways. With TC16 just around the corner, I have the unique opportunity...
