What is the minimum amount of RAM recommended for any production use of Tableau Server?

  1. 8GB
  2. 16GB
  3. 32GB
  4. 64GB

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The computer on which you are installing or upgrading Tableau Server must meet the minimum hardware requirements. If the Setup program determines that your computer does not meet the following requirements, you will not be able to install Tableau Server. These minimum requirements are appropriate for a computer that you use for prototyping and testing of Tableau Server. They apply to single-node installations and to each computer in a distributed installation.

  2. Bullet chart

True or False: Trend lines can only be used with numeric or date fields

  1. True
  2. False

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

You can show trend lines in a visualization to highlight trends in your data. To add trend lines to a view, both axes must contain a field that can be interpreted as a number. For example, you cannot add a trend line to a view that has the Product Category dimension, which contains strings, on the Columns shelf and the Profit measure on the Rows shelf. However, you can add a trend line to a view of sales over time because both sales and time can be interpreted as numeric values.

True or False: All rows from both tables are returned in an INNER JOIN

  1. True
  2. False

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The INNER JOIN keyword selects all rows from both tables as long as there is a match between the columns. Consider 2 tables "Orders" and "Customers".
If there are records in the "Orders" table that do not have matches in "Customers", these orders will not be shown!

Is SUM a table calculation?

  1. Yes
  2. No

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

SUM is an aggregate function, not a table calculation! A table calculation is a transformation you apply to the values in a visualization. Table calculations are a special type of calculated field that computes on the local data in Tableau. They are calculated based on what is currently in the visualization and do not consider any measures or dimensions that are filtered out of the visualization.

The most common Table calculations are:
Running Total
Percent Difference
Difference
Percent of Total
Rank
Percentile



These can be calculated using : Table(across), Cell, or Specific dimensions!
