Salesforce Analytics-Con-301 Exam - Topic 3 Question 4 Discussion

Actual exam question for Salesforce's Analytics-Con-301 exam

Question #: 4
Topic #: 3

A client wants to migrate their Tableau Server to Tableau Cloud. The Tableau Server is configured with three sites: Finance, Strategy, and Marketing. A

consultant must provide a solution that minimizes user impact and costs.

Which configuration should the consultant recommend for Tableau Cloud to meet the client's requirements?

AOne Tableau Cloud instance configured with a Finance project folder, Strategy project folder, and Marketing project folder

BOne Tableau Cloud instance with two sites for Strategy and Marketing, and one Tableau Server instance for Finance

CThree separate Tableau Cloud instances for Finance, Strategy, and Marketing

DOne Tableau Cloud instance configured with all workbooks in a single project

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A

To minimize user impact and costs while migrating from Tableau Server to Tableau Cloud with multiple sites, the best solution is:

Single Tableau Cloud Instance with Multiple Projects: Instead of multiple sites which could imply higher management overhead and possibly higher costs, configuring one Tableau Cloud instance with different project folders for each former site (Finance, Strategy, Marketing) is most efficient.

Benefits: This setup maintains organizational separation of data and access similar to having different sites but leverages the unified management and simplicity of a single cloud instance. It reduces complexity in user access management and integration points.

Implementation: Each project folder acts like a mini-site within the larger instance, where specific permissions and content can be managed independently, akin to the original server setup but within a single cloud-based environment.

References This recommendation is in line with best practices for cloud migration focusing on consolidation and cost efficiency, as suggested in Tableau's official documentation for cloud migration strategies.

Three separate instances? That sounds excessive!

Not sure about A, what if the Finance team needs more control?

I’m a bit confused about the site configurations; I thought having multiple sites would be better for organization, but I’m not sure which option is best.

I practiced a similar question, and I feel like keeping everything in one instance, like option A, would reduce user impact.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think having separate instances like in option C could complicate user access and increase costs.

I remember we discussed minimizing costs by consolidating resources, so maybe option A makes sense?

This is a tricky one, but I think I can work through it. I'll focus on the cost and user impact factors to determine the best solution.

I'm feeling pretty confident about this one. The key is to identify the option that consolidates the sites in the most efficient way while still maintaining the necessary separation.

Okay, I think I've got a good strategy here. I'll carefully read through each option and eliminate the ones that don't meet the client's requirements.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. The client wants to minimize user impact and costs, so I'll need to carefully consider the pros and cons of each option.
