I would like to know how to increase my billing tier for only one Bigquery query in Redash (not the whole project).
I am getting this error, while trying to refresh the query in Redash:
"Error running query: Query exceeded resource limits for tier 1. Tier 29 or higher required".
According to Bigquery's documentation there are three ways to increase this limit (https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/pricing#high-compute). However, I am not sure which one is applicable to the queries that are written directly in the Redash's query editor. It would be great if you could provide an example.
Thanks for your help.

I am looking for a cloud service provider to host a SQL DB in and access through API calls. After looking through multiple providers I have seen that Azure has a 12-month free trial but only 250 GB S0 instance with 10 database transaction units.
Could anyone explain to be what they mean by 10 DB transaction units? Any help is greatly appreciated.
For reference our database would not be large in scale just holding candidate and judges applications which we only get maximum 600 candidates per year.
I tried looking transactional units online and saw it make be a single REST API call which seems absurd to me.
Please examine the output of the following query:
SELECT * FROM sys.dm_user_db_resource_governance
That will tell you the following information about the current service tier:
min_cores (cores available on the service)
max_dop (the MAX_DOP value for the user workload)
max_sessions (the maximum number of sessions allowed)
max_db_max_size_in_mb (the maximum max_size value for a data file, in MB)
log_size_in_mb
instance_max_worker_threads (worker thread limit for the SQL Server instance)
The above information will give the details of what 10 DTU means in terms of resources available. You can run this query every time you change service tier of the database.
I have been exploring the Crux dataset in big query for last 10 days to extract data for data studio report. Though I consider myself good at SQL, as I have mostly worked with oracle and SQL server, I am finding it very hard to write queries against this dataset. I started from this article by Rick Viscomi, explored the queries on his github repo but still unable to figure it out.
I am trying to use the materialized table chrome-ux-report.materialized.metrics_summary to get some of the metrics but I am not sure if the Min/Avg/Max lcp (in milliseconds) for a time period (month for example) could be extracted from this table. What other queries could I possibly try which requires less data processing. (Some of the queries that I tried expired my free TB of data processing on big query).
Any suggestion, advise solution, queries are more than welcome since the documentation about the structure of the dataset and queries against it is not very clear.
For details about the fields used on the report you can check on the main documentation for the chrome ux report specially on the last part with data format which shows the dimensions and how its interpreted as show below:
Dimension
origin "https://example.com"
effective_connection_type.name 4G
form_factor.name "phone"
first_paint.histogram.start 1000
first_paint.histogram.end 1200
first_paint.histogram.density 0.123
For example, the above shows a sample record from the Chrome User Experience Report, which indicates that 12.3% of page loads had a “first paint time” measurement in the range of 1000-1200 milliseconds when loading “http://example.com” on a “phone” device over a ”4G”-like connection. To obtain a cumulative value of users experiencing a first paint time below 1200 milliseconds, you can add up all records whose histogram’s “end” value is less than or equal to 1200.
For the metrics, in the initial link there is a section called methodology where you can get information about the metrics and dimensions of the report. I recommend going to the actual origin source table per country and per site and not the summary as the data you are looking for can be obtained there. In the Bigquery part of the documentation you will find samples of how to query those tables. I find this relatable:
SELECT
SUM(bin.density) AS density
FROM
`chrome-ux-report.chrome_ux_report.201710`,
UNNEST(first_contentful_paint.histogram.bin) AS bin
WHERE
bin.start < 1000 AND
origin = 'http://example.com'
In the example above we’re adding all of the density values in the FCP histogram for “http://example.com” where the FCP bin’s start value is less than 1000 ms. The result is 0.7537, which indicates that ~75.4% of page loads experience the FCP in under a second.
About query estimation cost, you can see estimating query cost guide on google official bigquery documentation. But using this tables due to its nature consumes a lot of processing so filter it as much as possible.
I am using a free trial of Google bigquery. This is the query that I am using.
select * from `test`.events where subject_id = 124 and id = 256064 and time >= '2166-01-15T14:00:00' and time <='2166-01-15T14:15:00' and id_1 in (3655,223762,223761,678,211,220045,8368,8441,225310,8555,8440)
This query is expected to return at most 300 records and not more than that.
However I see a message like this as below
But the table on which this query operates is really huge. Does this indicate the table size? However, I ran this query multiple times a day
Due to this, it resulted in error below
Quota exceeded: Your project exceeded quota for free query bytes scanned. For more information, see https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/troubleshooting-errors
How long do I have to wait for this error to go-away? Is the daily limit 1TB? If yes, then I didn't not use close to 400 GB.
How to view my daily usage?
If I can edit quota, can you let me know which option should I be editing?
Can you help me with the above questions?
According to the official documentation
"BigQuery charges for queries by using one metric: the number of bytes processed (also referred to as bytes read)", regardless of how large the output size is. What this means is that if you do a count(*) on a 1TB table, you will supposedly be charged $5, even though the final output is very minimal.
Note that due to storage optimizations that BigQuery is doing internally, the bytes processed might not equal to the actual raw table size when you created it.
For the error you're seeing, browse the Google Console to "IAM & admin" then "Quotas", where you can then search for quotas specific to the BigQuery service.
Hope this helps!

I noticed that running a SELECT count(*) FROM myTable on my larger BQ tables yields long running times, upwards of 30/40 seconds despite the validator claiming the query processes 0 bytes. This doesn't seem quite right when 500 GB queries run faster. Additionally, total row counts are listed under details -> Table Info. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a way to get total row counts instantly?
When you run a count BigQuery still needs to allocate resources (such as: slot units, shards etc). You might be reaching some limits which cause a delay. For example, the slots default per project is 2,000 units.
BigQuery execution plan provides very detail information about the process which can help you better understand the source of the delay.
One way to overcome this is to use an approximate method described in this link

Hi,there.
Recently,I want to run a query in bigquery web UI by using "group by" over some tables(tables' name suits xxx_mst_yyyymmdd).The rows will be over 10 million. Unhappily,the query failed with this error:
Query Failed
Error: Resources exceeded during query execution.
I did some improvements with my query language,the error may not happen for this time.But with the increasement of my data, the Error will also appear in the future.So I checked the latest release of Bigquery,maybe there two ways to solve this:
1.After 2016/01/01,Bigquery will change the Query pricing tiers to satisfy the "High Compute Tiers" so that the "resourcesExceeded error" will not happen again.
2.BigQuery Slots.
I checked some documents in Google and didn't find a way on how to use BigQuery Slots.Is there any sample or usecase of BigQuery Slots?Or I have to contact with BigQuery Team to open the function?
Hope someone can help me to answer this question,thanks very much!
A couple of points:
I'm surprised that a GROUP BY with a cardinality of 10M failed with resources exceeded. Can you provide a job id of the failed query so we can investigate? You mention that you're concerned about hitting these errors more often as your data size increases; you should likely be able to increase your data size by a few more orders of magnitude without seeing this; likely you've encountered either a bug or something was strange with either your query or your data.
"High Compute Tiers" won't necessarily get rid of resourcesExceeded. For the most part, resourcesExceeded means that BigQuery ran into memory limitations; high compute tiers only address CPU usage. (and note, they haven't been enabled yet).
BigQuery slots enable you to process data faster and with more reliable performance. For the most part, they also wouldn't help prevent resourcesExceeded errors.
There is currently (as of Nov 5) a bug where you may need to provide an EACH keyword with a GROUP BY. Recent changes should enable BigQuery to automatically select the execution strategy, so EACH shouldn't be needed, but there are a couple of cases where it doesn't pick the right one. When in doubt, add an EACH to your JOIN and GROUP BY operations.
To get your project eligible for using slots you need to contact support.
