(upbeat music) >> Hi, I'm Peter Burris with another Wikibon Action Item Quick Take. Neil Raden. What's going on with Tableau? >> Well, you know, Tableau software has been a huge success story over the years. Ten years or more. But in the last couple of years they've really exploded. What they did is they allowed in users to take data, analytical data, build some models and generate all sorts of beautiful visualizations from it. Problem was, the people who use Tableau had no tools to work with to prep the data, and that was causing the problem. They work with partners and so forth. But that's all changing. Last year they announced Project Maestro, which is their own data prep product. It's built on a in-memory collinder-oriented data base called Hyper that they bought, and my information, coming from developers who are using the data is that Maestro is going to be a huge success for them. >> Excellent. >> And one other thing, I think it points out that a pure play visualization vendor can't survive. They have to expand horizontally. And it will remain to be seen what Tableau will do after this. This is clearly not its last act. >> Great. Neil Raden talking about Tableau and Project Maestro and expectations for it. This is Peter Burris. Thanks again for watching another Wikibon Action Item Quick Take. (upbeat music)
