Not everyone is a Tableau guru, at least not yet. To help Tableau rookies, we’re starting from square one with the Tableau Essentials blog series. The series is intended to be an easy-to-read reference on the basics of using Tableau Software, particularly Tableau Desktop 8.1...
PART 2 In part one we familiarised with Tableau's automatic Trend Line, information provided and inferences possible. Now I want to focus on the fun part: how to calculate the trend line ourselves using Tableau-R integration as well as two applied examples "How much above/below ?" and "What if"....
Last summer, I was invited to speak for the Boston Tableau User Group at the Broad Institute. This was a different crowd, composed of mainly scientists. There were two Zen Masters in attendance: Chuck Hooper and Jonathan Drummey. Prior to my speech, I had the good fortune to see Nicole Nichols,...
Rarely do you have a data connection that has only the data you need. Typically, we end up with data connections that include many columns that are unnecessary for our analysis. In the early phases of your analysis, it can be tough to judge what...
The volume, velocity and variety of data (Big Data) has been beaten to death over the last few years. I think it’s a silly metaphor. Why? How many of you have “run out” of storage recently? Has your company told you that you can’t have...

A little over two weeks ago, several InterWorks BI leaders attended the Drive/2015 Conference. The mission of Drive/ is to bring together IT and data professionals from all industries to foster new ideas and relationships. Key areas of focus include data, reporting, information, visualization and...
I think it's safe to say that the dust has FINALLY settled on this year's RBS 6 Nations Championship. What started with a whimper almost 7 weeks ago in Cardiff, ended in what can only be described as an earth shattering explosion of top class Rugby...
After completing my first book, I enjoyed traveling all over North America and Europe speaking at companies and Tableau User Groups. A big part of the fun was meeting hundreds of Tableau users. One of the first user groups to contact me to ask if...
Hot topics in the world of Big Data are forecast and trend models, and Tableau has integrated both features. All it takes are two clicks, and a trend line appears - your viz instantly looks more interesting. The disadvantage of the automatic trend line is...
Donut Charts bieten einen schnellen Überblick über Datenfelder mit wenigen Dimensionen. Im Wesentlichen bestehen sie aus berühmt-berüchtigten Pie Charts mit einem zusätzlichen Kreis in der Mitte – nichts Besonderes, dennoch schnell zu erstellen und richtig eingesetzt sehr nützlich und informativ. Die Segmente eines Donuts eignen sich hervorragend...
In this post, we'll be looking at one of the features that makes Tableau a great data exploration tool. So, put on your miner's cap, and let's go spelunking! Specifically, we'll be covering this point in the Data section of the Tableau Performance Checklist: "Use 'Describe'...
The days are getting longer. The weather is getting warmer. The ice is beginning to thaw. You know what this means? The greatest time of year is right around the corner! Summer time is almost here, and with it comes baseball season! To commemorate my favorite...
A few years ago, I decided to try to count all of the database products that were available. After spending several hours on a Friday evening trying to count all of them, I gave up at around 2 a.m., having counted 200. I classified them...
Immer wieder fragen Leute, wie man in Tableau innerhalb einer Arbeitsmappe effizient zwischen mehreren Dashboards vor und zurückspringen kann. Tatsächlich ist es ganz einfach: man erstellt ein "Button-Menü", und mittels Aktionen navigiert man elegant dem augenblicklichen Gedankenfluss folgend von Dashboard zu Dashboard. Also statt mühsam...
Blending data sources in Tableau has a steep, although quick, learning curve. It can be easily frustrating to get everything to work, so much so that a user may opt to push all data joins to the database. Also, there are cases (many) where data sources...

So, you've officially unlocked your business' data in Tableau. There's no denying how easy it is to gain immediate insight by simply clicking and dragging, but as you progress on your journey of data discovery, you inevitably end up asking more specific questions about your...
I first became aware of KK about a year ago through his interesting Tableau Public visualizations and his activity on Twitter. Earlier this year, I was fortunate to speak with him at an event in Chicago and was able to spend 90 minutes eating lunch...
Last week, I had the opportunity to attend my third Esri Developer Summit in Palm Springs, Calif. This is Esri’s third largest conference on their calendar, hosting 1,800 GIS professionals and developers. This is also their tenth Developer Summit, and they continue to find new...
