New Reader: Hyper Files

Our organization is growing in its use of Tableau and Tableau works more efficiently with Hyper files than with .xlsx and .csv files. There is a need to continue to use FME to clean data and prepare it for Tableau use and FME is preferred to use over Tableau Prep because we already have in place coding to run updates on Windows scheduler on our servers where we would need to purchase additional software to do this with Tableau Prep. As a result, we have identified we can write files from FME to a Hyper format, but there is yet no Reader available to read the files written and check them for accuracy. We would like to see a Hyper file reader added to address this. This will save having to open the files in Tableau Desktop or Tableau Prep to view them outside of FME.
