The EDG has been developed for enterprise IT administrators who may require: Given the distributed and modular design of the reference architecture, reliability and performance scale in a linearly predictable way by strategically co-locating compatible services at each node and adding services at chokepoints. However, reliability, performance, and scalability are also priority requirements. In this deployment, security is at the forefront of all design decisions and implementation. Services in the application tier communicate over the protected network to the data tier to service data requests to the backend data sources. High-value data is protected by the third subnet: the data tier. Once authenticated, the request is proxied to a protected subnet where the application tier handles the business logic.

Users accessing the server application from the internet are authenticated at the web tier. We have tested the reference architecture to verify compliance with security, scale, and performance benchmarks, which conform to industry-standard best practices.Īt a high-level, the core features of an industry standard enterprise deployment consist of a tiered topology where each layer of server application functionality (web gateway tier, application tier, and data tier) is bound and protected by access-controlled subnets. The Guide provides deployment guidance for enterprise scenarios in context of a reference architecture. The Tableau Server Enterprise Deployment Guide (EDG) has been developed to provide prescriptive guidance for deploying Tableau Server (on-premises or in the cloud).
