Tableau Exam TCC-C01 Topic 1 Question 10 Discussion

To build efficient extracts from large data sources, it is crucial to minimize the load and optimize the performance of the extracts:

A . Keep only the data required for analysis by using extract filters: This best practice involves using filters to reduce the volume of data extracted, thus focusing only on the data necessary for analysis.

B . Use aggregate data for visible dimensions, whenever possible: Aggregating data at the time of extraction reduces the granularity of the data, which can significantly improve performance and reduce the size of the extract.

E . Hide all unused fields: Removing fields that are not needed for analysis from the extract reduces the complexity and size of the data model, which in turn enhances performance and speeds up load times.

These practices are endorsed in Tableau's official documentation and training sessions as effective ways to enhance the performance of Tableau extracts and optimize dashboard responsiveness.
