Tableau Server Helm Chart – Reference

Important: This documentation assumes a knowledge of Helm and Helm charts and does not attempt to provide detailed, prescriptive examples. It is designed for customers who are familiar with both Tableau Server and Helm and Helm charts.

Introduction

This topic provides reference information for deploying Tableau Server on Kubernetes using a Helm chart.
