Better visibility for efficient server management
Get the most out of your Windows or Linux deployment, through enhanced agent-based monitoring with the Tableau Resource Monitoring Tool. The Resource Monitoring Tool offers deep insights into the health and performance of a Tableau Server cluster by parsing and analysing the logs generated by overall server usage and combining that with monitoring of physical system usage (CPU usage, RAM, disk I/O etc.). Threshold-based monitoring helps you stay on top of the health of your deployment. With increased visibility into hardware utilisation, VizQL sessions, data source queries, backgrounder workloads and more, it’s easier to manage and precisely tune the performance of your server.
Simplified content migration
Simplify and streamline your workbook and data source content workflows with the Tableau Content Migration Tool. Manage the movement of content between projects, sites or Tableau Server environments. Build your migration plan visually, and then set it to a schedule. You can remap data sources, and perform other workbook transformations.
Use cloud services for better reliability and scalability
For large deployments hosted on AWS or Azure, customers can choose to host their Tableau Server metadata repository externally, with Amazon RDS Postgres or Azure Database for PostgreSQL. This approach provides increased scalability and high availability for organisations with large amounts of Tableau metadata.
Optimise workloads
Optimise the performance of your deployment by customising which nodes process background jobs such as extract refreshes and subscriptions. By isolating these workloads to specific nodes, it's easier to scale your deployment to the needs of your organisation.

KMS integration for encrypted extracts
For data extract encryption at rest, we integrate with Amazon KMS. For existing AWS KMS customers, this capability helps you centralise your key management efforts and unlocks more advanced security and compliance scenarios.
External file store support
With the Server Management add-on, you can leverage network storage devices for backup snapshots which significantly reduces the time required to perform a back up. You can also use this capability to streamline your deployment topology by centralising your file store, eliminating the need to run file stores on multiple nodes in a Tableau Server Cluster.
