Praise for

Google BigQuery: The Definitive Guide

This book is essential to the rapidly growing list of businesses that are migrating their

existing enterprise data warehouses from legacy technology stacks to Google Cloud.

Lak and Jordan provide a comprehensive coverage of BigQuery so that you can use it not

only as your Enterprise Data Warehouse, for business analytics— but also use SQL to

query real-time data streams; access BigQuery from managed Hadoop and Spark clusters;

and use machine learning to automatically categorize and run forecasting and

predictions on your data.

—Thomas Kurian, CEO, Google Cloud

Every once in a great while a piece of software or service comes along that changes

everything. BigQuery has changed the way enterprises can think about their data, all of it.

Designed from the beginning to handle the world’s largest datasets, BigQuery has gone on

to be one of the best platforms for analyzing and learning from data. Announced in June

2016, “Standard SQL” is one of the most clean, complete, powerful, implementations of

SQL ever designed. Powerful features include deeply nested data, user defined functions

in JavaScript and SQL, geospatial data, integrated machine learning, and URL addressable

data sharing, just to name a few. There is no better place to learn about BigQuery than

from this book by Jordan and Lak, two of the people who know BigQuery best.

—Lloyd Tabb, Cofounder and CTO, Looker

Even though I’ve been using BigQuery for over seven years, I was pleased to discover that

this book taught me things I never knew about it! It provides invaluable insights into best

practices and techniques, and explains concepts in an easy to understand fashion. The

code examples are a great way to follow the content in a practical, hands-on manner, and

they kept the book fun and engaging. This book will undoubtedly become the go-to

reference for BigQuery users.

—Graham Polley, Managing Consultant, Servian

BigQuery can handle a lot of data very fast and at a low cost. The platform is there to help

you get all your data in one place for faster insights. This book is a deep dive into key

parts of BigQuery. In this quest along with two prominent legendary Googlers—

Lak Lakshmanan and Jordan Tigani—you’ll learn the essentials of BigQuery as well as

advanced topics like machine learning. I’m a huge BigQuery advocate. Having used the

tool firsthand, I can say that it will easily make your big data life a lot easier. This was an

amazing read and now the BigQuery journey starts for you! Jump in!
