BigQuery
Google’s online service for analysing very large amounts of data
What's it for?
Lets organisations analyse very large amounts of data using Google's online services.
For example…
An analyst queries several billion website events in BigQuery using SQL without managing database servers
A retailer puts its daily sales into BigQuery so finance and marketing can analyse the same up-to-date set of figures
Think of it like…
BigQuery is a warehouse you don’t rack yourself: you ask SQL questions of huge tables and pay for the work the query does
