A client is considering migrating from Tableau Server to Tableau Cloud.

When considering a migration from Tableau Server to Tableau Cloud, two critical factors to consider are the client’s need for single sign-on (SSO) and the volume of concurrent extract refreshes.

Single Sign-On (SSO): Tableau Cloud supports SSO, which can streamline user authentication and enhance security. If the client plans to leverage SSO, Tableau Cloud may be a suitable choice1.

Concurrent Extract Refreshes: The number of concurrent extract refreshes is a significant factor because it impacts performance and resource allocation. Tableau Server might be more appropriate if the client has a high volume of concurrent extract refreshes, as it allows for more control over the infrastructure to manage these workloads2.
