    Tableau Server on AWS

    You dont need your own on-premise infrastructure


    and server hardware to create an enterprise-level
    Tableau Server installation. You can build and scale
    Tableau Server in the cloud, using EC2 instances
    within Amazon Web Services (AWS). This
    Quick Start describes how to get started
    with this type of cloud-based deployment.
    Before beginning, you should be familiar
    with AWS, and have the following:
    -

    AWS account
    AWS access keys
    Tableau Server Setup file
    Tableau Server product key

    In AWS

    Build a Cloud

    Create your Virtual Private Cloud (VPC):





    Select your VPC.


    Under Security, select Network ACLs.
    - Choose the Inbound tab.
    - In the Create a rule drop-down, select HTTP,
    add a Rule # and click Add Rule. Repeat for
    HTTPS and RDP.
    Repeat with Security Groups selected.

    Launch an EC2 Instance

    Switch to your EC2 Dashboard, click Launch


    Instance, and follow the prompts. See the Tableau
    Server specifications for guidance on supported
    operating systems. At the Security Group step,
    choose Select an existing security group and
    select what you configured in step 2, above.

    If you plan to run a single Tableau Server using its


    default settings, skip to step 6 below.

    One to run an AD domain controller and DNS


    server. See Directory Services on Amazon EC2
    for configuration steps.
    One (or more) to run as a Tableau Server
    Worker.

    In Tableau Server

    Install Tableau Server

    Connect to your first EC2 instance via RDP and install


    Tableau Server. If you plan to run a cluster, this will be
    your primary Tableau Server.
    After you create a Tableau Server administrator
    account and sign in, you can add and license users.

    Allocate an AWS EIP Address

    Allocate a static, public IP address to your VPC


    (which you will later assign to your EC2 instance) by
    selecting your VPC, selecting Elastic IPs on the left,
    then clicking Allocate New Address.

    Optional: Add More EC2 Instances

    To run a Tableau Server cluster, use Active Directory


    (AD) with Tableau Server, or both, you need to add
    two more EC2 instances:

    Allow inbound traffic to reach your VPC via three


    standard ports:

    Log in to your AWS console.


    Under Compute & Networking, select VPC.
    In the upper-right, use the region selector to
    choose the location nearest to you.
    Click Get started creating a VPC, choosing VPC
    with a Single Public Subnet Only.

    Configure Networking & Security

    Optional: Install Tableau Worker

    Explore Views

    If you are running a Tableau Server cluster, install a


    Tableau Server Worker.

    On Tableau Server, click a view to open it, then explore


    the view by filtering data, saving your changes,
    advertising it to others, and more. See the Tableau
    Server help for tips on other ways to explore Tableau.
