What differentiates Google BigQuery from other similar products?

BigQuery makes it easy to import data from various sources into a pre-defined schema and table. Rapid data access is one of the many strengths of this excellent data warehouse technology. Using a standard web browser, users can view and verify large amounts of data. The underlying engine always strives to improve query performance and grow as needed to achieve service-level agreements.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The data warehousing and real-time analytics functions are my favorites. I can export the ability to store massive amounts of information to spreadsheet programs like Google Sheets. My Google Data Studio reports required a data warehouse that could process large payments of information rapidly and efficiently. Since migrating to Google Big Query, we've seen instantaneous loading times and more agility across all data sets.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The price is the one thing I don't like, although compared to other cloud providers, BigQuery is reasonable. The sandbox environment of BigQuery only allows DML SQL commands, which limits its usefulness for learning. As my query grows in size, the BigQuery console's lag becomes more annoying. BigQuery doesn't support all the major SQL languages.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

To store and generate reports from our many syndicated data sources, I have taken advantage of Google Cloud and BigQuery. Tableau and other data visualization tools are used to access the functional and reporting levels of BigQuery. It's a great buy because it's simple to implement and use and works well with other programs to help with data analysis and visualization.

Pros

  • Reliable
  • Unique Features
  • Saves Time

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Google BigQuery from other similar products?

Google BigQuery is among the fastest, most user-friendly, cloud-based data-querying technologies available. The best ever aspect is that it grants us access to a vast data processing and storage system that can deal with even the most difficult requests. With Google BigQuery, query execution is incredibly quick, and the underlying engine constantly seeks to scale or improve query performance to fulfill SLAs.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

With Google BigQuery, we can create a robust and comprehensive data warehouse with full reporting and dashboarding capabilities for our company. I enjoyed Big data access and validation using a straightforward browser and data cleaning to produce reliable results. Ml was made easy by Google BigQuery. Due to the fact that we don't have to pay for hardware, it is significantly more affordable than on-site data storage.

What do you dislike most about this product?

One problem that I have encountered there is that BigQuery does not support all SQL statements. You must have a basic understanding of coding to use this platform. It could cost you a lot of money if you use incorrect code and submit all the data to a huge query. Finding some tables and pinning a project can be challenging in some circumstances.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Without a doubt, I'd advise it. Companies that have the ability to evaluate information from several different sources might learn important details about the actions of their customers. Google BigQuery is an effective tool for data analytics since it offers quick access to vital corporate data. The best tool for handling extraordinarily massive volumes of data is Google BogQuery.

Pros

  • Trustworthy
  • Caring
  • Acts with Integrity
  • Client's Interest First
