Tableau Desktop Foundations Practice Question

An analyst is building a dashboard connected to a large, slow database and needs to maximize performance. What is the primary advantage of using a Tableau data extract instead of a live connection in this scenario?

  • Access to real-time data that is continuously updated from the source.

  • A reduced query load on the source database, which is the main performance factor.

  • The ability to work completely offline with no impact on data freshness.

  • Improved dashboard performance, as queries are processed by Tableau's high-performance data engine.
