Why is BigQuery so slow?

2 Answers. It’s time spent on metadata/initiation, but actual execution time is very small. We have work in progress that will address this, but some of the changes are complicated and will take a while. You can imagine that in its infancy, BigQuery could have central systems for managing jobs, metadata, etc.

Is BigQuery worth?

BigQuery is good for scenarios where data does not change often and you want to use cache, as it has built-in cache. What does this mean? If you run the same query and the data in tables is not changed (updated), BigQuery will just use cached results and will not try to execute the query again.

Is BigQuery expensive?

Storage Data is by far the simplest component of BigQuery pricing to calculate, as BigQuery currently charges a flat rate of $0.02 per GB, per month for all stored data. Even storing a whopping 500 TB of data is (at most) a cost of roughly $10,000 per month in BigQuery.

What is BigQuery storage API?

The BigQuery Storage API provides quick access to BigQuery-managed storage using an RPC‑based protocol. When you use the BigQuery Storage API, structured data is sent over the wire in a binary serialization format. This allows for additional parallelism among multiple consumers for a set of results.

Which SQL does BigQuery use?

Standard SQL is the preferred SQL dialect for querying data stored in BigQuery.

What database does BigQuery use?

What is the difference between NoSQL and big data?

NoSQL is a better choice for businesses whose data workloads are more geared toward the rapid processing and analyzing of vast amounts of varied and unstructured data, aka Big Data. Unlike relational databases, NoSQL databases are not bound by the confines of a fixed schema model.

Is mymysql good for big data analytics?

MySQL is a widely used open-source relational database management system (RDBMS) and is an excellent solution for many applications, including web-scale applications. However, its architecture has limitations when it comes to big data analytics.

Can I use BigQuery as a relational database?

You need to understand that BigQuery cannot be used to substitute a relational database, and it is oriented on running analytical queries, not for simple CRUD operations and queries. In this article, I will try to compare using Postgres (my favorite relational database) and BigQuery for real-world use case scenarios.
