- On-premise
- In a DMZ network segment
- A hybrid environment with on-premise and cloud servers
- In the private-cloud
- In public cloud, such as Tableau Online
The Tableau User Sync Solutioncan be installed on your active-directory domain-controller, or your Tableau Server or any system in between.
