Amazon Athena vs. Google Cloud BigTable

If you are looking to take a lot of the traditional "database administration" work off someone's plate, going with Amazon Athena certainly has "no code" options to optimize lots of database tasks. I would say this option is less appropriate if you have other Microsoft things at play, such as Power BI.

It works great for any use case that requires high throughput for reads and writes, for key-value kinda data. This enables you to use it for usecases where you need to retain data for a long term or even short term but then use it in pipelines to enrich data, sync states between backend and frontend or to quickly lookup say a user.

• Nested Schemas like JSON data structure
• Ability to adapt the data model to fit your queries better
• Performance Improvement

• Analytics: is at Google's heart. No on can beat Google in this space and BigTable is one of its implementation of this. The insights you gain from BigTable are simply usable in your day to day activities and can help you make real difference.
• Speed: Processing TBs and PBs of data under minutes needs real efficient platform which is capable of doing much more than just processing data. All this data cannot be processed by a single machine, but rather huge pairs of machines working in conjuction with each other. BigTable's implementation is one of the finest and allows you achieve great speeds!
• Interface: is great. Google has segregated required task under logically placed buttons which takes no time by users to understand and get habituated.

• Response caching can be improved.
• Data Partitioning is tricky and understanding of the same could be improved.

As a hosted solution, that can be managed easily from the Google cloud platform, it enables the teams to think about business use cases vs thinking about the management of the database itself. It is easily to scale it up when you need more throughput or storage. This keeps the developers and the product folks happy.
