by Lynda Partner on Sep 30, 2019 12:00:00 AM

Google BigQuery is a serverless, highly scalable, low-cost enterprise data warehouse that helps data analysts become more productive. It enables extremely fast analytics on a petabyte scale. And its pay-as-you-go model makes it attractive for organizations looking to move away from a CAPEX-based model for data warehousing. In response to the growing interest in BigQuery, Pythian’s Google Cloud Platform Qualified Solutions Developers and Cloud Data Engineers have put together a white paper that guides you through the process of evaluating whether BigQuery is a good fit for your use case, then takes you, step-by-step, through a migration from Teradata to BigQuery. The authors of this white paper are some of Pythian’s Google Cloud Platform qualified experts who help enterprises around the world get the most from their Google Cloud Platform implementations, including BigQuery. For example, they recently implemented BigQuery as part of a solution that transformed the way the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) understands and reaches their thousands of participants and fans. With BigQuery, their ability to perform analytics has resulted in increased ticket sales, improved venues for matches, improved player selection, youth team engagement and more. Read the full story.
