&lt;p&gt;Google Cloud BigQuery can be a strong choice for small businesses, especially if you&#39;re already using other Google Cloud services. It handles data transformation well and integrates smoothly with various ETL tools, making it easier to manage and analyze large datasets without heavy infrastructure.&lt;/p&gt;
