Partitioning in BigQuery improves query performance and cost management by dividing a table into smaller partitions based on a specific column.
BigQuery supports date-based partitioning using DATE, TIMESTAMP, or DATETIME columns, or ingestion-time partitioning.
To partition a table by date column in BigQuery, follow a step-by-step procedure which includes creating a partitioned table and inserting records into it.
Querying partitioned tables with filters on partitioned columns is a best practice to optimize performance.
