I don't think there is any difference between installing Tableau Server on on-premises or in the public cloud (AWS, Azure, etc.). You can create a 2 node instance (see Install Tableau Server on a Two-Node Cluster) but it will not have any failover. If you need any sort of redundancy, you'll want 3 nodes--1 primary and 2 workers. (Note: This changes a bit in 2018.2). More information here: Distributed Requirements

Hi, just following up on this one. Let us know if we can be of any further assistance.

Hi Ken,

For the Two node installation of Tableau server in AWS, do we have any existing Cloud formation templates that can be reused ?

Thanks,

Prasanth

Great. Glad to hear it.

Take a look at the AWS Quickstart: Tableau Server on AWS - Quick Start

Thanks for the Link. This guide contains the templates for single node and muti-node Architecture of Tableau servers but not specifically for two node. Actually i am modifying the Muti-node template to support two node architecture of Tableau server. Where as if there already existed Two node template that would save my time and effort. If you are aware of existing Two node Templates please let me know.

Thanks,

Prasanth
