Updated Nov 2023: After one year of initial View Acceleration release, Tableau released new View Acceleration Recommendation feature, which makes the View Acceleration much more user friends.

What happened is there are too many scenarios that View Acceleration is not supported (like live connection, view has user filter or role level security, or view render is a few seconds or less, etc). In the past, I often selected 2-3 out of 10 views selected can be actually accelerated, that disencourge me to try it more…..

This new View Acceleration feature tells me which view can be accelerated, that is very user friendly now.

Tableau v2022.1 released a feature called View Acceleration. What is it? It is actually pre-compute query cache after extract refresh (for the data queries that the view uses).

Pre-compute query cache, aks cache warm up, is a feature since 10.4. What are the differences between this new View Acceleration and pre-compute query cache? Here is the summary:
