How to connect hive to tableau?

Question

I have deployed a custom multi-node hadoop cluster with two slaves and one master and stored data in hive table. How can I connect hive to tableau for visualization?

Answer 1

We can not connect hive to tableau if we are using a custom multi node cluster. Available tableau-hive connectors are for packaged clusters like hortonworks, cloudera etc. only. We can use open source visualization tools like apache zeppelin or apache hue as an alternative to tableau.
