A large enterprise with a global presence is looking to enhance its Tableau Server deployment to support advanced analytics and machine learning…

Tableau Server Management Add-On (renamed “Tableau Advanced Management for Server”) supplies enterprise-grade observability, workload orchestration, external repository/file-store options, and resource monitoring. These capabilities let global organisations run compute-intensive advanced analytics and machine-learning extensions (e.g., TabPy, Einstein Discovery) reliably at scale by improving performance, security and manageability of the underlying Tableau Server cluster.

A. Bridge handles hybrid connectivity, not analytics compute or ML scalability.

B. Catalog (part of Data Management) gives lineage and governance, not runtime support for ML workloads.

C. Data Management improves prep & governance but lacks the infrastructure enhancements needed for heavy ML/advanced analytics processing.
