Comment on Ask HN: What is the best data storage solution for BIG data and fast queries?

Comments

I recommend Google BigQuery. Its storage is cheap ($0.02/GB) and can become even cheaper. You can process huge amounts of data quickly and pay $5 for each terabyte your query processes.

It's easy to use too and its version of SQL is quite powerful.

On AWS, there is Athena which works on data stored in S3 and has the same processing price as BigQuery ($5/TB.) However, from my experience, I recommend BigQuery.
