• Ask HN: Guidelines for making clear architecture diagrams

  Conventions exist but they're mostly crap. Along the KISS principle, boxed elements with connecting nodes are the best (most universally understood). In mathematical terms, this is an 'undirected graph', a 'directed graph' is the same but with directionality on the links between nodes. The standard toolkit for defining these in software is https://graphviz.org/ If you need to show the interaction between elements... - Source: Hacker News / 8 days ago

• Should I Open Source my Company?

  Thoughtful post, thanks. However, this tripped me up: "our GPU graph viz server" -- I couldn't understand how you a) scale graphviz[1] on a GPU and b) make money hosting graphviz. Quick read of your web site cleared that up :) [1] https://graphviz.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Trippy 0.9.0 Release

  Tracing flows: breakdown complex UDP/TCP ECMP traces into individual flows (i.e. Common network path); render a chart of flows in GraphViz DOT format (example). Source: 5 months ago

• Calculate the difference and intersection of any two regexes

  It has the look of graphviz about it, which is an excellent tool. Often helpful in debugging anything related to graphs. https://graphviz.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• What are some tools to help in visualizing concepts

  If you are talking about making visualisations for other people it would depend if you want to make them interactive, static, or a mix of the two. I’m not really sure what to recommend given I don’t know - but here are a few places to start: - Python tutor - manim - processing - graphviz - simple but good - draw.io. Source: 12 months ago

• Tableau Certified Data Analyst Exam Readiness

  Hey everyone, I'm interested in taking the Tableau Certified Data Analyst Exam Readiness course through tableau.com to prepare and get Tableau certified. I had some questions about the course, such as are the videos pre recorded or in person, do you have access to the material once the 90 days expire, and I was also wondering if anyone had input/advice for this course. Thanks! Source: 10 months ago

• Where to publish knowledge sharing on Tableau reverse engineering and data dictionary generation?

  Could anyone recommend what media I should approach to publish my work (internet or print). I could try the Tableau forum in tableau.com but it's not very active + Tableau may be unappreciative as my work overlaps with their (pricey) data management solution. Plus it needs to be some high visibility / reputable media to count for my career development. Any recommendations welcome thanks!!! Source: over 1 year ago

• I have huge loads of data in Redshift. How can I make this available to end-users after performing few procs and queries? It should be available online.

  Tableau public: tableau.com. Big player but your data will be made public and not really user-friendly data model. Source: about 2 years ago

• What tips do you have on evaluating various BI tools for business needs? What are the essential criteria's you would include when evaluating different tools? The goal is to have an unbiased, objective approach.

  For example, we have a project to compare Tableau, Power BI, and InetSoft. The need for strong pagination-based email delivery eliminated Tableau. AWS's Linux instance is the targeted platform which makes Power BI less than ideal. Source: about 2 years ago

• Anyone go into Data Analytics after this program?

  I just started learning Tableau because our dept is transitioning into Tableau from Power BI. Since I already have years of experience with Power BI I just went over their tutorials from tableau.com and got onboarded pretty quick. I'm still learning it but I'm at least able to build out reports and get things done. Its not too difficult to pickup one BI tool when you have experience with another. Source: about 2 years ago
