Tableau is one of the leading business intelligence tools used worldwide, in organizations of every scale. In its latest release, Tableau 2018 promises richer and more useful features related to visual analytics, reporting, dashboarding, and a host of other data visualization aspects. Getting Started with Tableau 2018.x will get you up and running with these features.

The rest of the book will guide you through each major aspect of Tableau with examples. You'll learn how to connect to data, build a data source, visualize your data, build a dashboard, and share it online. In the final chapters, you'll also learn advanced techniques such as creating a cross-database join, data blending, and more. By the end of the book, you will have a firm understanding of how to effectively use Tableau to create quick, cost-effective, and business-efficient business intelligence solutions.

Summary

This chapter, even though it's not technical, is really important. This chapter is the key to continuing your journey with Tableau. This chapter is also my tribute to the Community who kept pushing me higher and higher over the last three years since I started using Tableau. 

Even if you don't plan on sharing a lot or getting involved (which is understandable), keep in mind that the Community Forum is the first place to go if you have any questions regarding Tableau. Even though I tried my best to explain all the concepts in this book, no books or training sessions can cover every use case you will encounter in real life. Also, if you're searching for resources, blogs, inspiration, or webinars, you'll find it on Tableau Public or through the Community Projects. 

Thanks for purchasing and reading this book. I truly hope that you've...
