商品描述

This book simplifies the use of Tableau software functionality for novice users so that they can create powerful data visualizations easily and quickly. Since it is often very difficult and expensive to provide external training on BI tools, this book aims to equip the reader with the resource they need to do it themselves.

Jumpstart Tableau covers the basic reporting and analysis functions that most BI users perform in their day-to-day work. These include connecting to a data source, working with dimensions and measures, developing reports and charts, saving workbooks, filtering, swapping, sorting, formatting, grouping, creating hierarchies, forecasting, exporting, distributing, as well developing various chart types.

Each exercise in Jumpstart Tableau provides screenshots that cover every step from start to finish. The exercises are based on a comprehensive sample Excel-based data source that Tableau Software (version 9) has provided, which makes it very easy to duplicate the exercises on the real software.

In addition, the book:

  • Enables readers to develop reports, queries and visualizations
  • Perform data analysis
  • Execute each function in a step-by-step manner
  • Provides the basic hands-on ability which can enable users to work up to more advanced and complex Tableau functionality
  • Shows how to integrate individual development of content, such as tables/charts and visualizations., onto a dashboard for an effective presentation
What You'll Learn

  • How to connect to data sources
  • How to develop reports
  • How to develop visualizations
  • How to perform analysis functions (e.g., filtering, drilldown, sorting, grouping, forecasting, etc.)

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書簡化了Tableau軟體功能的使用，讓初學者能夠輕鬆快速地創建強大的數據可視化。由於在商業智能工具上提供外部培訓通常非常困難和昂貴，本書旨在為讀者提供所需的資源，讓他們自己完成這項任務。

《Jumpstart Tableau》涵蓋了大多數商業智能使用者在日常工作中執行的基本報告和分析功能。這些功能包括連接到數據源、處理維度和度量、開發報告和圖表、保存工作簿、過濾、交換、排序、格式化、分組、創建層次結構、預測、導出、分發，以及開發各種圖表類型。

《Jumpstart Tableau》中的每個練習都提供了從頭到尾的每個步驟的截圖。這些練習基於Tableau Software（版本9）提供的一個全面的基於Excel的示例數據源，使得在真實軟體上複製這些練習非常容易。

此外，本書還：

- 讓讀者能夠開發報告、查詢和可視化
- 執行每個功能的逐步操作
- 提供基本的實踐能力，使用戶能夠進一步掌握更高級和複雜的Tableau功能
- 展示如何將個別開發的內容（例如表格/圖表和可視化）整合到儀表板中，以實現有效的演示

你將學到：

- 如何連接到數據源
- 如何開發報告
- 如何開發可視化
- 如何執行分析功能（例如過濾、下鑽、排序、分組、預測等）
- 如何以不同格式保存可視化並分發它們
- 如何開發儀表板及其內容

這本書適合初學者的Tableau使用者、商業智能終端使用者，以及開發人員和業務分析師。同時，大學課程中關於儀表板和數據可視化以及商業智能和數據分析的學生可以快速掌握Tableau工具，並將其應用於與這些課程相關的實踐項目中。
