Tableau Software is a business intelligence-focused interactive data visualization software company based in the United States. It began in Mountain View, California, in 2003 and is now headquartered in Seattle, Washington. Salesforce bought the company for $15.7 billion in 2019. This was, at the time, Salesforce's (a leader in the CRM area) largest acquisition since its inception. Salesforce's acquisition of Slack later exceeded it.
Christian Chabot, Pat Hanrahan, and Chris Stolte, the company's founders, were all researchers at Stanford University's Department of Computer Science.
From 1999 to 2002, they concentrated in visualization approaches for examining and analyzing relational databases and data cubes, and founded the company as a commercial outlet for Stanford research.
To build graph-type data visualizations, Tableau products query relational databases, online analytical processing cubes, cloud databases, and spreadsheets. An in-memory data engine can also be used to extract, store, and retrieve data.
