Tableau is moving into the data-wrangling business, announcing plans for visual data-preparation software code-named Project Maestro. The idea is to bring the same sort of "self-service" visualization to the prepping and cleaning of data as they've built for data analysis. You need to know what is Self-service tool for Tableau.
Visual ways of inspecting, joining and editing data. Results could then be piped into Tableau for analysis.
Natural-language queries. Tableau is aiming for true natural speech, not merely being able to type in questions that require using exact field names and functions. The demo included queries such as "show houses near Ballard," which brought up a map of such homes and their selling prices as well as a slider to alter the radius definition of "near."

- The other features-Speedier data import and analysis. Tableau's new data engine in the works, based on Hyper technology it acquired earlier this year, should make it significantly faster to import and analyze large data sets with Tableau.
- A conference demo showed hundreds of thousands of records being imported per second, as well as being visualized in real time as the import process continued. The engine is in part a response to customer feedback that building large data extracts took too long.

- The system would be able to understand a query such as "Show me the most expensive houses near Ballard last summer" without having to explicitly define "most expensive" as the maximim of price field or "last summer" as a particular date range.
- Next, a user would be able to simply type "show me the cheapest houses" and the system would understand this was similar to the prior query, without needing to repeat "near Ballard last sumer."
- Data governance that allows organizations to certify trusted content and calculations and share useful calculations created in one workbook with all users on the company's Tableau Server. Recommended analyses so Tableau would suggest visualizations and other analysis based on your data set.
Pre-built recommended dashboards from cloud services, including combining data from multiple services.
This will start next year with four services: Salesforce, Marketo, Eloqua and Quickbooks
