Tableau Cloud Migration

A Trusted Cloud Migration Process

Your data will have just as much impact coming from the cloud just as it has since you first installed Tableau Server on premise. But there's a lot to think about when migrating from Tableau Server to Tableau Cloud. Data connections need to be reconfigured with tunnels created from Tableau Cloud into your local network, permissions must be maintained and user accounts seamlessly moved.

Rather than starting from scratch yourself we have an experienced team ready to take you through the whole process with assessments and tools to give you the confidence that the process will complete as expected.

Why customers are choosing Tableau Cloud?

Tableau Cloud can have a lower "all in" total cost of ownership per user with no additional infrastructure, storage or change management costs. Its costs scale predictably with flexible options allowing you to taylor your service to your current needs.

Tableau's cloud infrastructure is fully supported by Tableau themselves with high availability, premium performance and 99.9% SLA all included. This frees up admins and partners to work on data innovation and education rather than managing servers keeping with Tableau's overall goal of making the technology disappear and your data take centre stage.

Finally, every year Tableau announces some amazing new innovations the bulk of which come to Tableau Cloud first. But don't worry about upgrading, Tableau upgrades your site every few months with zero downtime.

Our cloud migration process

Assessment

Migration

Enablement

Assessment: Getting Started

In the readiness assessment phase, we concentrate on understanding your key needs and requirements. We analyse your server content and usage, as well as your network architecture. Together, we'll discuss options to consolidate and establish datasource connectivity. Based on this, we propose a comprehensive migration plan, including timelines, deliverables, and costs, along with value capture and return on investment forecasts.

To conclude this phase, we offer an in-person or virtual workshop with a consultant to evaluate the outcomes of the assessment and plan the next steps in your migration journey. We also provide a detailed report that covers the findings of the assessment and the results of the workshop.

Migration: Moving to the Cloud

After the readiness assessment, we progress to the migration phase. This is where our carefully constructed plan comes into action.

Working collaboratively with your teams, we meticulously prepare for the significant transition. Our assistance includes configuring your authentication system, deploying and rigorously testing the Tableau Bridge, and auditing content to facilitate a clean slate in the cloud environment.

Leveraging our extensive experience, we're committed to a smooth transition of content from server to cloud, utilising our custom-built tools. This ensures that your migration journey is not only efficient but also seamless and successful.

Enablement: Assuring Success Post-Migration

Even after your content has successfully migrated, been thoroughly tested, and is live, our assistance doesn't end. We remain committed to ensuring optimal usage of Tableau and helping you harness its full potential.

Onboarding and Training: We facilitate the onboarding of end users to the new platform and provide comprehensive training for administrators. This ensures everyone is comfortable and efficient in the new environment.

Deploying Monitoring Solutions: To keep your system running smoothly, we deploy monitoring solutions. This allows for real-time tracking and swift resolution of any issues.

Building Best Practices: Our support extends to helping you build and implement best practices in governance and usage. This ensures continuous improvement and helps your organization move from strength to strength.

Our dedication to your success goes beyond the migration phase - we're here to support your journey every step of the way.
