Mailchimp is a global marketing automation platform aimed at small to medium-sized businesses. Mailchimp provides essential marketing tools for growing a successful business, enabling businesses to automate messages and send marketing emails, create targeted business campaigns, expedite analytics and reporting, and effectively and efficiently sell online.
BigQuery is an enterprise data warehouse that draws on the processing power of Google Cloud Storage to enable fast processing of SQL queries through massive datasets. BigQuery helps businesses select the most appropriate software provider to assemble their data, based on the platforms the business uses. Once a business’ data is acculumated, it is moved into BigQuery. The company controls access to the data, but BigQuery stores and processes it for greater speed and convenience.
