1.If a performance recording indicates that query response times from external
databases are the primary bottleneck in Tableau Server, what should be the first
course of action?
A. Upgrading the external database servers for faster processing
B. Reviewing and optimizing the database queries used in Tableau workbooks for
efficiency
C. Implementing caching mechanisms in Tableau Server to reduce the reliance on
database queries
D. Restricting the size of data extracts to lessen the load on the external databases
Answer: B
Explanation:
Correct Answer
B. Reviewing and optimizing the database queries used in Tableau workbooks for
efficiency. The first course of action when dealing with slow query response times
from external databases, as indicated by a performance recording, should be to
review and optimize the database queries used in Tableau workbooks. Optimizing
queries can include simplifying them, reducing the amount of data queried, or
improving the structure of the queries. This directly addresses the inefficiencies in the
queries, potentially improving response times without the need for major infrastructure
changes.
Option A is incorrect because upgrading external database servers is a more
resource-intensive solution and should be considered only if query optimization is not
sufficient.
Option C is incorrect as implementing caching mechanisms might alleviate some
issues but does not address the root cause of slow query performance.
Option D is incorrect because restricting the size of data extracts does not necessarily
improve the efficiency of the queries themselves.

2.In a Tableau Server deployment using a load balancer, what configuration is
necessary to ensure SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption is effectively
implemented?
A. SSL termination must be configured at the load balancer level
B. SSL certificates should be installed on each individual Tableau Server node
C. The load balancer should be configured to bypass SSL for internal network traffic
D. A single SSL certificate must be shared between the load balancer and the
Tableau Server
Answer: A
Explanation:
Correct Answer
A. SSL termination must be configured at the load balancer level Configuring SSL
termination at the load balancer level is essential in a Tableau Server deployment.
This setup enables the load balancer to decrypt incoming SSL traffic and then
distribute the requests across the server nodes. This approach simplifies SSL
management and ensures secure communication between clients and the load
balancer.
