Performance aside, we've found BigQuery to be far cheaper than Redshift.
With BQ you pay for the amount of data that flows through the system, as opposed to how many instances are running with Redshift.
We also don't really need Redshift running all the time so something like BQ or Azure SQL Datawarehouse where you can pause and scale up/down fits our usage patterns and budget much better.
- ranman 10y agoJust FYI you can pause and scale with Redshift as well... but if you query very infrequently (or low volume) cost structure of BQ might be on your side.
