Tableau Server Management Add-On to leverage advanced analytics and ma-chine learning capabilities This add-on provides enhanced capabilities for managing the Tableau Server environment, including features that support advanced analytics and machine learning, which are essential for a large enterprise looking to leverage these technologies. Option A is incorrect be-cause Tableau Bridge primarily focuses on live data connection and not on advanced analytics or machine learning. Option B is incorrect as Tableau Catalog is more about data visibility and lineage, not directly related to advanced analytics and machine learning. Option C is incorrect because while it improves data preparation and cataloging, it does not directly address advanced analytics and machine learning requirements.

Implementing SCIM for automated user provisioning and deprovisioning SCIM allows for automated and efficient management of user accounts in a dynamic workforce, handling changes in employment status and roles without manual intervention. Option A is incorrect because manual account management is inefficient and prone to errors in a large, dynamic organization. Option C is incorrect as using a shared account compromises security and does not provide individual user accountability. Option D is incorrect because it disperses the responsibility and can lead to in-consistent account management practices.

The ‘data_connections’ table to gain insights into connections and performance of published data sources The ‘data_connections’ table in the Tableau repository schema is critical for tracking the performance of published data sources. It provides detailed information on each connection made to the data sources, offering insights into how these data sources are being accessed and utilized, which is crucial for understanding and optimizing their performance. Option A is incorrect because the ‘users’ table, while identifying users, does not provide specific information on data source performance. Option C is incorrect as the ‘background_tasks’ table focuses on scheduled tasks and does not offer detailed insights into real-time data source performance. Option D is incorrect because the ‘server_usage’ table provides a broad overview of server activity but does not offer the granular details required for monitoring specific data source performance.

Setting up a trust relationship between Tableau Server and the Kerberos Key Distribution Center (KDC) Establishing a trust relationship between Tableau Server and the Kerberos KDC is crucial for Kerberos authentication. This involves configuring the server to properly communicate with the KDC, allowing it to request and receive Kerberos tickets for authenticated users, thereby enabling seamless SSO functionality. Option A is incorrect as installing third-party SSO software is not necessary for Kerberos authentication, which is a built-in capability. Option C is incorrect because giving all users administrative privileges is unrelated to Kerberos authentication and would be a security risk. Option D is incorrect as enabling anonymous access would undermine the security principles of Kerberos authentication, which relies on verified identity tickets.

Staging the upgrade by first updating a non-primary node, followed by the primary node, and then the remaining nodes For a multi-node Tableau Server upgrade, it is crucial to stage the upgrade process to minimize disruption. This involves first upgrading a non-primary node, allowing for testing and validation before proceeding with the primary node and then the remaining nodes. This staged approach helps ensure stability and availability of the server throughout the up-grade process. Option A is incorrect because upgrading all nodes simultaneously could lead to significant downtime if issues arise. Option B is incorrect as performing the upgrade during business hours can disrupt users and business operations. Option D is incorrect because upgrading the primary node first can pose a risk if new or untested changes impact server stability.

Creating a dedicated Tableau user and group, and setting appropriate ownership and permissions on the Tableau directories For a successful Tableau Server installation on Linux, it’s crucial to create a dedicated Tableau user and group. Setting appropriate ownership and permissions on the Tableau directories ensures that Tableau Server has the necessary access rights to operate correctly while maintaining the security and integrity of the system. Option A is incorrect because as-signing the Tableau Server user to the root group poses significant security risks and is not recommended. Option C is incorrect as giving all users administrative privileges is unnecessary for Tableau Server installation and could compromise system security. Option D is incorrect because disabling the firewall does not affect file system permissions and is not a recommended practice during installation.

Reducing the administrative overhead associated with manual user account management and improving security Implementing automated user provisioning using SCIM in Tableau Cloud significantly reduces the administrative overhead associated with manual user account management. It also enhances security by ensuring that user account changes in the organization’s identity management system are automatically and accurately reflected in Tableau Cloud. Option A is incorrect because SCIM does not eliminate the need for user authentication; it streamlines user account management. Option C is incorrect as SCIM does not allow users to bypass organizational identity verification; it ensures user accounts in Tableau Cloud align with these verifications. Option D is incorrect because the primary role of SCIM is to manage user accounts, not just to track user activity.
