Google BigQuery sets itself apart from other similar products through its exceptional speed and scalability in processing large-scale datasets. The platform's serverless architecture eliminates the need for infrastructure management, enabling users to focus solely on querying and analyzing data. Its unique billing model, based on on-demand pricing, ensures cost-effectiveness by charging only for the resources used during queries, making it a flexible and cost-efficient solution.

Google BigQuery, with its speed, scalability, and ecosystem integration, has become my go-to tool for efficient pipeline

What do you dislike most about this product?

While Google BigQuery excels in many aspects, one area that can be challenging is the cost, especially for large and complex queries. The on-demand pricing model, while flexible, can lead to unpredictability in expenses, and users need to be mindful of optimizing queries to manage costs effectively. Additionally, there might be occasional limitations in terms of advanced data preparation features within the platform, requiring users to perform some tasks outside of BigQuery.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

For those considering Google BigQuery, I would recommend carefully assessing your data engineering needs and ensuring compatibility with the platform's strengths in speed and scalability. Take the time to understand the on-demand pricing model and optimize your queries to manage costs effectively.
