What is Tableau Public Premium?
Tableau Public Premium is a hosted service that makes sharing live, interactive data visualizations (such as charts, dashboards, and reports) on public websites fast and easy. With Tableau Digital you can enhance your web site’s content by adding interactive data graphics anywhere you like. Tableau’s cloud offers security and performance to support any use over the web.
How Does Tableau Public Premium Work?
• Create: Using Tableau Desktop you have the ability to connect to data and in minutes create beautiful interactive charts, graphs and dashboards with an easy drag and drop interface.• Share: Once you have created your visualization with Tableau Desktop, simply save your visualization to Tableau Public Premium (Tableau’s premier cloud hosting service). With your visualization saved to Tableau Public Premium you’ll have the option to share your work with others by providing a unique URL or by copying and pasting a small portion of HTML right into your website – just like embedding a YouTube video.
How is Tableau Public Premium Different from Tableau Server?
Tableau Public Premium is a hosted service solution for people wanting to publish visualizations out to a public audience. Tableaus Server is an on-premise software solution that allows people to publish visualizations meant for private secure consumption (intranet, extranet, etc.). With Tableau Public Premium you create visuals locally using Tableau Desktop Professional and then publish them up to the Tableau cloud, you don’t manage any server hardware. With Tableau Server, you purchase software which you then install on servers behind your organization’s security firewalls. Tableau Server allows for user permission setting as well as row level data security so that you control who sees your visualizations.
How is Tableau Public Premium Different from Tableau Public?
Tableau Public is a free version of Tableau Public Premium. Tableau Public looks, feels and behaves just like Tableau Public Premium except that Tableau Public Premium has the following features: · Tableau Public Premium can disable the ability for viewers to access your underlying data · Tableau Public Premium does not limit the number of rows in your data source to 100,000 · Tableau Public Premium does not limit your account storage to 50 Megabytes
SecurityIf a client asks more than two questions about security with Tableau Public Premium?
Then there is a very high likelihood that Public Premium is NOT the solution for them. Security=Server.
How do I control who sees what views when I publish up to Tableau Public Premium?
You can’t. Tableau Public Premium is for public audiences and there are no permissioning features. The only security feature is the ability to disable the “Download” button as well as the “View Data” buttons on embedded visuals to prevent viewers from accessing your underlying data source(s).
Can’t I just embed a visual published up to Tableau Public Premium on a page on my website that is secured behind a login?
That is not advisable. There is nothing stopping someone from using the “Share” dialog at the bottom of the visual to obtain either the visual’s unique Tableau Public Premium URL and/or it’s HTML embed code. Even without the “Share” button, this information could be gathered by someone smart enough to look at the page source information for your site. With these pieces of information someone could re-embed your published visual anywhere they wanted.
Is there no way to secure a Tableau Public Premium view behind a secure login/ paywall?
That is correct. Tableau Public Premium views are meant to be consumed and shared by public audiences. If you need to control who is seeing your published views then Tableau Server is the best solution.
I’m okay with anyone seeing my Tableau visualizations, but I’d like them to stay on my site. How do I get rid of the “Share” button?
Tableau Public Premium visualizations are meant to be seen and shared across the web so we don’t have an option to remove the “Share” button. Many Tableau Public Premium users do a great job of branding the visuals they embed on their website so that if someone does choose to embed it in a different site, there is no question as to where it originally came from. Using features like hyperlinked images on the visual, customers actually turn their creations into incredibly powerful marketing tools that point back to their sites no matter where they are embedded on the web.
What is the security of your Cloud/Cluster like? Are you CSA compliant? What kind of security documentation can you show us around ISO standards, etc.?
Those are great questions. While I can provide information that will address some of those inquires, I think the bigger issue is ‘Why are those areas important for you?’ Since Tableau Public Premium is a platform for sharing interactive visualizations with public audiences, is there a possibility that this data is actually too sensitive to be hosted in a cloud environment even if the visualization itself isn’t?
What can you tell me about Tableau Public/Digital’s cluster security?
• Tableau’s online systems are hosted in a Type II SAS-70 compliant Savvis Data center including physical and logical security measures to help protect our customers’ data. • Tableau employs industry standard firewall and load balancing technologies that reduce exposure to external threats.• Customer data is stored on systems which are not directly accessible by the public from the internet.• Tableau uses commercially reasonable efforts to make sure Tableau online systems are available 99% of the time, excluding planned maintenance.
How much does Tableau Public Premium cost?
Tableau Digital is priced based on the amount of traffic (impressions/page views) you need to support your published visualizations on a monthly basis. Whether get a thousand page views or a million, Tableau Digital has a usage plan that can accommodate. · Example 1: Customer A is the marketing manager at a data services company and uses Tableau Public Premium as a way to engage visitors with interesting data visualizations on her home page. She knows from her Google Analytics history that she gets roughly 13,000 page views a month. Her Tableau Public Premium yearly price is $17,000 and affords her a monthly plan that is capped at 100,000 impressions. · Examples 2: Customer B is a director of institutional research at a large University. Her team uses Tableau Public Premium as a way to quickly and easily compile and publish the statistics that go on the University’s Factbook page. She knows that this page never gets more than 4,000 hits a month. Her Tableau Public Premium yearly price is $4,750 (EDU/NFP discount) and affords her a monthly plan that is capped at 5,000 impressions.
Can I subscribe for longer than 1 year? I don’t want to go through a budgeting process every 12 months and it’s easier to do something like a 2 year contracts.
Yes. Tableau can work with you do a multi-year contract.
How does Tableau define an “impression?”
The official definition of an impression is “Delivery of a Tableau visualization to a web browser (also referred to as a page view or page impression).” Our view of impressions correlates with total landings on a given page with a Tableau visual embedded on it. An example would be a user who navigates to a page on your site that contains a Tableau embedded visualization. The initial load of that page/visual would count as 1 impression. The user could then interact with that Tableau visual as much as they wanted (filtering, selecting, parameter controls, switching to different tabs, etc.) and it will not trigger another impression. Things that will cause an additional impression to register would be manually refreshing the entire page (F5), navigating away from that page and then returning to it (causing both page and visual to fully reload), and/or letting it sit idle for more than 20 minutes causing a server timeout . Additionally, if two separate dashboards are embedded on 1 page, then that will trigger 2 impressions when that page loads. Example, if I publish Workbook A up to my Tableau Public Premium account and then embed it onto my homepage – at that point bringing up my homepage in my browser only triggers one impression. However if I publish Workbook B up to my Tableau Public Premium account and embed it to my homepage as well, so that my homepage now has 2 embedded Tableau visualizations on it, then bringing up my homepage on a browser will trigger 2 impressions.
What happens if I exceed my monthly impression cap?
There are overage charges that are applied on the months you exceed your impression cap. Ultimately though, Tableau is more interested in making sure companies have the plan that is right for them then it is in collecting overage fees. In a the situation where a company is having lots of success with Tableau Public Premium and exceeding their monthly impression cap, we’re much more likely to explore the possibility of upgrading to a higher impression plan than continue to charge overage fees.
