What is the purpose of TabMon in Tableau?

TabMon is a monitoring agent specifically designed to track the performance of Tableau Server. Its primary purpose is to collect and visualize performance metrics, enabling administrators to gain insights into the server's operation, resource usage, and overall health. By using TabMon, users can identify bottlenecks, troubleshoot performance issues, and ensure that the Tableau Server is running optimally. This helps organizations maintain efficient use of their resources and improve the user experience by addressing potential slowdowns or failures proactively.

The other options refer to different functionalities not related to monitoring Tableau Server performance. A tool for creating interactive dashboards focuses on data visualization rather than performance assessments. A data extraction utility serves a different role by pulling data from external databases, which is not what TabMon does. A connection manager for content security policies pertains to the management of security measures rather than performance tracking in the server environment.
