IS THIRD-PARTY DATA A GOOD FIT FOR YOUR PURPOSE?

Who better to ask about synthetic data, third-party data, scalability hurdles of analytics and the next face of data collaboration than Andrew Beers. As its Chief Technology Officer, Andrew Beers has been responsible for Tableau's long-term technology roadmap and emerging technologies. He has been leading many engineering teams, creating new products, and has been at the heart of Tableau's engineering for most of the company's existence. With a master's degree in computer science from Stanford University, Beers brings a fresh perspective and a humble perspective when he looks at the power of data. Here are some snippets from his recipe of data analytics.

What is your vision for Tableau for the next 3-4 years? Do you see any help/competition coming from breakthroughs in quantum computing and fog computing when we think of analytics?

Quantum and fog computing are really exciting for the future of work-but it's still too early for many organizations. Many of the executives we talk to right now are thinking about Artificial Intelligence, Data Ethics, Workforce Development, Flexible Governance and Data Equity.

We go into each of these categories in our Data Trends report. And we believe these trends will be a priority for years to come. All these trends are interconnected; and for organizations to be successful in the future, they absolutely must excel in each of these areas.

Now data-driven organizations will have the greatest advantage. And in the future, Tableau will continue to focus on how to help all organizations become data-driven. It's our goal to help everyone inside an organization to make better decisions faster. Because we've seen what happens when people can make smarter decisions with data-not only do they transform business, but they also transform the world.

Of course, we're going to tap various technologies and techniques to do that-all while keeping people at the center of our innovation.
