Summary

Google BigQuery Service, initially released as a preview at Google I/O, is designed to allow businesses of all sizes to conduct large-scale data analytics without the need for significant IT investments. The service, which evolved from Google's internal data analysis tool known as Dremel, enables rapid processing of massive datasets, facilitating better business decisions. It now includes a graphical user interface for quick data exploration and an enhanced REST API for programmatic access, allowing for complex queries like JOIN statements across multiple data tables. BigQuery offers improved management of data tables, including security and sharing options, and supports exporting query results to desktops or Google Cloud Storage. It leverages thousands of machines for data processing, providing a robust solution for both large corporations and smaller businesses. The service is free for a limited period, with Google inviting new pilot customers to test its capabilities.
