How does Tableau works

Tableau is based on three simple concepts.

+ Connect: Connect Tableau to any data source that you want

to analyze.

+ Analyze: Analyze your data the way you want, I mean filter it,

sort it, perform aggregation on it, Summarize it and so on.

+ Share: You can share results with others either by sharing

workbooks with other Tableau users, by pasting results into

applications such as Microsoft Office, printing to PDF or by

using Tableau Server to publish or embed your views across

your organization.
