>>I'm more curios about the best tools and architectural patterns that work well with each other.

Well you can go with:

Fancy: Hdfs(distributed file system) as storage - oozie as workflow scheduler for your load(python/hive/scala/spark) - Tableau for visualization (your business ussers will love it.

Mid range: SQL Server as storage - Informatica for your workload - power BI /SSRS for visuals

Open/low budget: PostgreSQL / Cassandra for storage - make your own scheduler/ there is a post for ETL open score yesterday that might help - for visuals you can make it from scratch but hire a good designer!

This is based on my experience on industries like Gambling, Banking and Telecom

Tableau has a terrible UI and looks like it hasn't been updated since 1995. Go for Looker instead.

Absolutely what? It's the best in the industry. In that case, could you suggest a better tool, and also maybe separately which tool that looks better?
