Here's the start.

If you've never used tableau desktop before, you will quickly learn they have a suite of data related products. Tableau desktop is the product that goes on a pc or mac only. Definitely, check the minimum requirements before you get started on the tableau deep dive!

What does Tableau desktop do?

Tableau desktop has one input and one output. Data is your input, and you will be able to connect data across nearly every data source. Storytelling, visualizations, and data analysis will be your output.   Determining your data story is best with the business. Business users are the ones with the logic! Business users the reason for the data to be there in most cases and know why it's there and what it means.   Then the business relies on IT to facilitate analysis across the organization. Tableau desktop catapults any skill level user to generate massive stories with data is critical and revealing how you progressed from point A to point B is equally important. Tableau carries native storytelling features that allow end users to explain their journey and how they got there.

What is ETL and can you do it with tableau desktop?
Extract Transform and Load. You extract the data from a source, you transform the data, and load the data into a target database.   Now you know about etl, let's discuss!   Tableau desktop carries front end etl and this means companies can now remove old data warehouse licenses and save hundreds of thousands of dollars because of a front end dashboarding tool! Talk about powerful!   Tableau desktop - over the past 3-4 years - has made a point to develop all 'major requested' ideas coming from their forums. In most cases, I believe this can replace most data warehouses I've seen over my many years of working in the data environment.   So, this technique does away with software licenses that cost 100k+. Knowing basic SQL allows you to build your own data warehouse, in the product, with cross database joins, and you can get rid of all those silly ETL jobs.
