Question 1
In a scenario where Tableau Server’s dashboards are frequently updated with real-time data, what
caching strategy should be employed to optimize performance?
- AOption A:
Configuring the server to use a very long cache duration to maximize the use of cached data
- BOption B:
Setting the cache to refresh only during off-peak hours to reduce the load during high-usage
periods
- COption C:
Adjusting the cache to balance between frequent refreshes and maintaining some level of cached
data
- DOption D:
Utilizing disk-based caching exclusively to handle the high frequency of data updates
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: C
Adjusting the cache to balance between frequent refreshes and maintaining some level of cached
data For dashboards that are frequently updated with real-time data, the caching strategy should aim
to balance between frequent cache refreshes and maintaining a level of cached data. This approach
allows for relatively up-to-date information to be displayed while still taking advantage of caching for
improved performance. Option A is incorrect because a very long cache duration may lead to stale
data being displayed in scenarios with frequent updates. Option B is incorrect as refreshing the cache
only during off-peak hours might not be suitable for dashboards requiring real-time data. Option D is
incorrect because relying solely on disk-based caching does not address the need for balancing cache
freshness with performance in a real-time data scenario.
Question 2
If load testing results for Tableau Server show consistently low utilization of CPU and memory resources
even under peak load, what should be the next step?
- AOption A:
Further increase the load in subsequent tests to find the server's actual performance limits
- BOption B:
Immediately scale down the server's hardware to reduce operational costs
- COption C:
Focus on testing network bandwidth and latency as the primary factors for performance
optimization
- DOption D:
Stop further load testing as low resource utilization indicates optimal server performance
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: A
Further increase the load in subsequent tests to find the server’s actual performance limits If load
testing shows low utilization of CPU and memory resources under peak load, the next step is to
increase the load in subsequent tests. This helps in determining the actual limits of the server’s
performance and ensures that the server is tested adequately against potential real-world high-load
scenarios. Option B is incorrect because scaling down hardware prematurely might not
accommodate unexpected spikes in usage or future growth. Option C is incorrect as focusing solely
on network factors without fully understanding the server’s capacity limits may overlook other
performance improvement areas. Option D is incorrect because stopping further testing based on
initial low resource utilization may lead to an incomplete understanding of the server’s true
performance capabilities.
