# Integrating Third-Party BI Visualizations in Custom Views

This chapter describes how to integrate third-party business intelligence visualization tools in Xpress Insight custom views, including configuring the mirror database, and configuring and using Tableau with Xpress Insight.
Covered Topics

- Configuring How Data is Exposed to BI Software
  Business Intelligence software such as Tableau expects to query data stored in a standard format. Xpress Insight holds scenario data in a proprietary, highly compressed format. The data must therefore be expanded ("mirrored") into a relational database to be consumed by a third-party BI tool. This database is referred to as the Mirror.
- Integrating Tableau Visualizations in Custom Views
  Tableau is a powerful business intelligence application that allows you to analyze many different types of structured data using a greatly expanded range of chart and graph formats to create your views.
