Tableau Software released Tableau 9.1, which it claims to enable people to analyze data from any source while in the office or on the go.
“Tableau 9.1 builds on our mission to help people see and understand data, no matter where the data resides and what device they’re using,” said Chris Stolte, Chief Development Officer and co-founder of Tableau Software. “We’ve made significant investments in enterprise features and an entirely new mobile app. We also created a web data connector that helps developers extend Tableau to connect to a limitless number of sources from Facebook to Twitter and Google Sheets. New native connectors to critical data sources such as SAP and Google Cloud SQL are also included.”
The Tableau Mobile App is completely redesigned to make it easier for people to find, interact with and manage content on the go. Offline Snapshots save favorite views that can be seen offline at any time.
Tableau 9.1 continues to build on enterprise-class Tableau Server, providing more flexibility for companies to more easily manage their deployments. Capabilities such as Single Sign On for SAP HANA and support for SAP variables, Mutual SSL Authentication, Product Updates, Scheduled Active Directory Sync, and Rest API updates make it easier to deliver self-service analytics at scale announced the press release.
Tableau continues to deliver on its mission to help people see and understand data whether that data is on premises or in the cloud. Tableau 9.1 provides more connectivity options and opens up new opportunities to connect to any web data through the web data connector.
In addition to the Web Data Connector, the update includes new native connectors to Google Cloud SQL, Amazon Aurora and support for several data services from Microsoft Azure.
