Last week Looker, today Tableau, next week Qlik or Alteryx?

I wonder how this will integrate with Einstein and other AI products salesforce already has. Pardot is the first to come to mind. They already own Heroku, Mulesoft, and Quip.

Exciting times to be a data geek. Hopefully this adds more money to the AI race.

yeah I see Alteryx or something similar as their next purchase. All they are missing now is a ETL solution.

The #6 tool behind Informatica, Dell Boomi, Jitterbit, Workato and SnapLogic according to Gartner.

Yet it's still an ETL tool.

On a sidenote, at what point do we stop taking Gartner seriously? Recent report had MicroStrategy (complete dinosaur of an application) ranked top on almost every category. It's so blatant.
