Short answer

BigQuery is Google Cloud's serverless, fully managed data warehouse for storing and analyzing large datasets with SQL. It is popular with marketers because Google Analytics 4 and Google Ads data can be exported into it natively. Teams use it to join marketing data with other sources, build custom reports, and support modeling and attribution.
