“Radical” change under new Tableau CEO

April 10, 2017 by Ted Cuzzillo

The changes at Tableau Software in the eight months since CEO Adam Selipsky succeeded co-founder Christian Chabot have been “pretty radical,” says Dan Murray, director of strategic innovation at InterWorks, one of Tableau’s earliest partners if not the first.

What’s Tableau doing buying HyPer, the German OLTP/OLAP hybrid? The March 10 announcement brought a flurry of email — and the Doodler notices news about a company he’s watched since it was a mere puppy that tipped over an industry. Now as it eases into midlife, flush with cash and renown, it does what comes with that age: It buys stuff.

Innovative, high performance database system

The newly acquired technology is, according to the Tableau announcement, an “innovative, high performance database system.” Like the Stanford University-developed Tableau, this database was also developed at a university, the Technical University of Munich.
