2019 – Bridging the Gap: Connecting the Path Between Data Warehouse and Analytics

Presentation Summary

Human Resources Information Services (HRIS) at the University of Michigan faced a challenge as it started adopting Tableau as its primary analytics platform over the last several years. What is an efficient and maintainable way to bring data into Tableau from the existing data warehouse, so the group could spend more time analyzing data and less time bringing data into Tableau? This presentation will focus on how HRIS went about tackling this challenge and explain the benefits/issues that were encountered along the way.
