Visualize Your Data 2x Faster With Tableau

What's this blog post about?

DataStax Enterprise (DSE) has been reported to be twice as fast due to its new features and improvements. Alongside this, users can now visualize their data 2x faster when using the Spark SQL connection in Tableau. This is made possible by DSE's Advanced Performance features and DSE Analytics AlwaysOn SQL. The use of visual graphs for data analysis has been proven to be more efficient than tabular formats. In previous versions, SQL access was handled differently, with limitations such as requiring manual start-up and monitoring of the Spark SQL Thrift Server. However, in DSE 6, AlwaysOn SQL addresses these issues by offering a production-ready, enterprise-grade ODBC/JDBC service. Magnitude (previously Simba) has also enhanced their ODBC/JDBC driver to allow seamless integration with the AlwaysOn SQL REST API. For more information or assistance, users can refer to Brian Hess's blog on AlwaysOn SQL or contact [email protected]. A tutorial is available for creating a simple Tableau workbook using data stored in DSE.
