Tableau Server 9.0 Scalability: Powering Self-Service Analytics at Scale
Tableau 9.0 is the biggest release in the history of our company. Since November 2014, very early in the 9.0 release cycle, we started performance and scalability testing of new features while they were still being developed. We iteratively incorporated design feedback for new features into the performance and load testing for Tableau Server 9.0
There are a number of factors that can impact performance and scalability, including workbook design, server configuration, infrastructure tuning, and networking.
