.. pandas-gbq documentation master file, created by sphinx-quickstart on Wed Feb 8 10:52:12 2017. You can adapt this file completely to your liking, but it should at least contain the root `toctree` directive. Welcome to pandas-gbq's documentation! ====================================== The :mod:`pandas_gbq` module provides a wrapper for Google's BigQuery analytics web service to simplify retrieving results from BigQuery tables using SQL-like queries. Result sets are parsed into a :class:`pandas.DataFrame` with a shape and data types derived from the source table. Additionally, DataFrames can be inserted into new BigQuery tables or appended to existing tables. Note: The canonical version of this documentation can always be found on the `googleapis.dev pandas-gbq site `__. .. note:: To use this module, you will need a valid BigQuery account. Use the `BigQuery sandbox `__ to try the service for free. While BigQuery uses standard SQL syntax, it has some important differences from traditional databases both in functionality, API limitations (size and quantity of queries or uploads), and how Google charges for use of the service. BiqQuery is best for analyzing large sets of data quickly. It is not a direct replacement for a transactional database. Refer to the `BigQuery Documentation `__ for details on the service itself.
