• Data transformation tools other than DBT

  For the data loaded from the raw and unstructured data sources (RESTful APIs, files, feeds) I'd recommend checking tablum.io. The data first gets into the staging SQL DB where you can apply transformations in SQL (ClickHouse dialect with hundreds of ready-to-use functions for aggregations, transformations, string and array processing, etc). After that, you can set up a pipeline to external DWH or DB. Or just... Source: almost 2 years ago

• Hi All. Question about ETL

  Fairly easy to parse it with Python (or any other scripting languages that support regular expressions). Besides, there're no-code parsers that can do that. E.g. tablum.io, it has a regexp parser that turns poorly formatted text into an SQL table. All you need it is to provide the regular expression (regexp) to split the text (per-line basis or the entire text) into chunks that become SQL rows and columns, after... Source: about 2 years ago

• Data ingestion product questions

  You're right. There should be some way to safely pass the authentication token without storing it in the query. BTW, to keep all data within the company network perimeter and no share any keys with the cloud service, one can install tablum.io as a self-hosted version on a Linux server (it runs in Docker).

• 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: almost 2 years 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 2 years 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 3 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 3 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 3 years ago
