Tableau Overview

Mission

Consolidating UCLA’s Tableau footprint by utilizing an enterprise Tableau instance serves as the foundational framework for the University’s data visualization needs. The enterprise Tableau servers create opportunities for a shared infrastructure environment which reduces university costs and allows for more collaborative community of UCLA's analytics teams across campus. The goals of this enterprise instance include:

  • Infrastructure SharingProvide Tableau as a service and liberate teams from setting up their own instance(s); allowing them to focus on building analytics benefiting the University
  • Community building: Establish a UCLA Tableau community by creating a network of Tableau developers, information sharing, and hosted webinars
  • Knowledge Sharing: Enable the flow of skills and techniques from units with more advanced Tableau analytic skills to data enthusiasts with beginner skills
