2025: Tableau Next with AI agents GA with Tableau+ SKU; Concierge and Data pro GA June 2025; Leader in 2024 Gartner Magic Quadrant Analytics and BI (12th consecutive year)
Tableau is a business intelligence and data visualization platform founded in 2003 by Christian Chabot, Pat Hanrahan, and Chris Stolte as a spin-out from a Stanford computer science research project focused on making database queries accessible to non-programmers through visual interfaces. The company's founding technology — VizQL (Visual Query Language) — translates drag-and-drop visual interactions into database queries, enabling analysts to explore data without writing SQL. Tableau went public in 2013 and was acquired by Salesforce in 2019 for $15.7 billion in one of the largest enterprise software acquisitions at that time, becoming the analytics foundation of Salesforce's Einstein intelligence strategy.\n\nTableau's platform spans desktop, server, and cloud deployment options and supports connectivity to hundreds of data sources including cloud warehouses (Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift), databases, flat files, and SaaS applications. The product family includes Tableau Desktop for individual analysts, Tableau Server for on-premise enterprise deployments, Tableau Cloud for SaaS delivery, and Tableau Public for free public data visualization publishing. In 2025, Salesforce launched Tableau Next, a reimagined platform embedding AI agents — including Concierge for natural language analytics and Data Pro for automated insight generation — as first-class features available in general availability.\n\nTableau has been positioned as a Leader in Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Analytics and Business Intelligence Platforms continuously since the quadrant's inception, and it retains that designation in the 2024 report. Salesforce's integration has expanded Tableau's addressable market by connecting it directly to the CRM data that hundreds of thousands of Salesforce customers manage, while also introducing organizational complexity as Tableau's product roadmap increasingly merges with Salesforce's broader Einstein and Data Cloud strategy.
Decentralized Web3 infrastructure with RPC node access across 30+ blockchains; globally distributed nodes reduce latency; premium dedicated nodes for apps needing guaranteed throughput.
Ankr is a Web3 infrastructure platform offering remote procedure call node access to more than 30 blockchain networks through a globally distributed network of nodes run by independent operators. Unlike centralized providers that operate their own data centers exclusively, Ankr's decentralized architecture routes requests across geographically distributed nodes, improving latency for users in regions underserved by US- or EU-centric infrastructure. Its public free-tier RPC endpoints — available for Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon, Avalanche, Fantom, and dozens of others — have made Ankr one of the most widely used infrastructure providers in the multi-chain developer ecosystem.
