A client wishes to evaluate system response for expected increased users in a single node deployment. What tool should they use?

The most appropriate tool for evaluating system response under expected increased user load in a single node deployment is Tabjolt. Tabjolt is specifically designed for load testing Tableau Server, enabling users to simulate concurrent users interacting with the system. This allows the client to assess performance metrics, response times, and system behavior as the number of active users increases, which is critical for understanding how the server will handle growth in user demand.

Tabjolt facilitates testing scenarios that help identify any potential bottlenecks or performance issues before they impact end-users. The results gained from utilizing Tabjolt can guide adjustments in server configuration, capacity planning, and resource allocation to ensure optimal performance under load.

In contrast, while other tools such as Tableau Server Manager provide insights into server health and manageability, they do not focus specifically on load testing. The Performance Recorder captures performance metrics for individual Tableau workbooks but does not evaluate the impact of increased concurrent users on the entire server. The Resource Monitoring Tool allows tracking resource usage, but again, it lacks the simulation capabilities to effectively gauge system response under load conditions.
