BigQuery, as a leading cloud data warehouse platform, offers many benefits to data analytics community with respect to performance at scale but the jewel of the crown is its built-in ML capabilities! Bringing ML modeling in hands of SQL developers and where the data resides is very powerful capabilities for accelerated advanced analytics applications!This book is a perfect resource for any data analytics developer and data scientists to quickly go from zero to sixty in a week for building ML based solutions. The Book is well focused with practical approach to machine learning models within BigQuery by providing excellent use cases to work with. One can easily apply the learning to the business problem at hand. I particularly liked the flow of the book, even within a chapter, to go from introduction to advanced concepts.A complete guide to BigQuery Machine Learning for anyone who wants to solve business problem with sophisticated machine learning algorithm but with ease of SQL statements!

I got interested in the book once I found out about new functionalities in Google Cloud Platforms - especially about triggering models and model management using Big Query. The explanations and examples were light weight and easy to understand compared to online courses on the same topic(s). Coding along is strongly recommended. For GCP certification a more advanced course or book may be required to complement the contents of this book.

The book is well divided into 4 sections swiftly moving to the advanced areas. What I really enjoyed about the book is that it covers most of the aspects of BigQuery. I feel the book is designed in a manner that people with novice knowledge on the topic can master it, a concise guide. The matrix factorization and forecasting timeseries were very well explained and are highly useful for me. Overall a good book to build ML models would really recommend it.

As a Big query practitioner, I found the book very fascinating. The concept are concise with interesting problem statement to work on. I feel, the book is designed in such a way that you will be getting your basics clear and then move on to the difficult part. BigQuery cost depends on size of data getting scanned and queries mentioned in the book gives you the best cost optimization. I would highly recommend to refer this book who are exploring BigQuery and ML related problem statement.

This is a very easy to read intro. level book to get you started using BQML the easy way. It shows you step by step guide to prep/clean/filter the data, train the model with many different supported algorithms/options, evaluate the model (e.g. no overfitting) and predict with the trained model. It is an excellent book if you like to use standard SQL to do Machine Learning without the need to learn Python, Tensorflow, etc… This will help liberate many business intelligence (BI) specialists upgraded into the next level, i.e. able to predict and classify for good business use cases with BQML machine learning models. A lot of easy to use code to get started. A lot of references to learn more in BQML and other use cases.Section 1 is more introduction to GCP and BQ environment. You can skip if you know them already.Section 2 is more on the linear regression, binary and multiclass logistic classifications.Section 3 is more on Adv. Models, e.g. K-means, matrix factorization, XGBoost, Deep Neural Networks.Section 4 is more on how to use GCP AI notebooks to run BQML, run TF models with BQML (e.g. import/export BQ <-> TF saved model, BQML Tips and Best Practices, e.g. data quality, prep data, hyperparameters tuning, how to do near real time recommendations, etc.Suggestions:1/ there should be a typo in p. 324, “In this case, the MOD function returns a value from 0 to *10*”, Mod (X, 10) should return from 0-9 (not 10) because it returns the REMINDER of the Mod function after division.2/ Can introduce GCP Data Prep to help prepare and visualize the data in addition to Data Studio and its min/max/Not Null examples as shown in the book.

Can I download the code files for Early Access titles? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

We try to ensure that all books in Early Access have code available to use, download, and fork on GitHub. This helps us be more agile in the development of the book, and helps keep the often changing code base of new versions and new technologies as up to date as possible. Unfortunately, however, there will be rare cases when it is not possible for us to have downloadable code samples available until publication.

When we publish the book, the code files will also be available to download from the Packt website.

How accurate is the publication date? Chevron down icon Chevron up icon

The publication date is as accurate as we can be at any point in the project. Unfortunately, delays can happen. Often those delays are out of our control, such as changes to the technology code base or delays in the tech release. We do our best to give you an accurate estimate of the publication date at any given time, and as more chapters are delivered, the more accurate the delivery date will become.
