What differentiates Google BigQuery from other similar products?

Google BigQuery stands out because it is serverless, meaning you don't need to manage or worry about the underlying hardware. This makes it easier to use, as you can just focus on analyzing your data.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

My favorite aspect of this product is that BigQuery is cost effective. It charges based on how much data you query, not on how much storage or computing power you use, which can make it more cost-effective.

What do you dislike most about this product?

What I dislike most about Google Big query is users don't have much control over the system because BigQuery is serverless. This can be a problem for people who want to customize settings for better performance.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I would recommend Google BigQuery for analyzing large datasets easily, but be aware of its costs for big queries and the time it might take to learn its SQL.
