Alteryx has significantly expanded its partnership with Google Cloud to enhance accessibility and AI-readiness of BigQuery for enterprise business teams. The collaboration introduces Live Query for BigQuery—now generally available—and plans for Alteryx One: Google Edition, enabling governed, in-place analytics directly within Google Cloud without data movement.

  • Alteryx deepens Google Cloud partnership to make BigQuery more actionable and AI-ready for business users across enterprises.
  • Live Query for BigQuery is now GA, allowing workflows to run directly in BigQuery with no data movement, preserving governance, security, and scale.
  • Business users gain no-code access to prepare, transform, and analyze massive datasets in BigQuery without SQL or extracts.
  • IT teams benefit from centralized control, reduced shadow IT, stronger security, and maximized Google Cloud ROI.
  • Upcoming Alteryx One: Google Edition, available via Google Cloud Marketplace, offers native integration with BigQuery, Google Sheets, and Google Drive.
  • Solution embeds trusted, repeatable business logic into BigQuery to support accurate, explainable AI outcomes in critical processes.

The expanded partnership addresses a key challenge in cloud analytics: the disconnect between where data resides in platforms like BigQuery and how it is prepared, governed, and turned into actionable insights. By enabling in-place analytics, Alteryx helps organizations close this gap and accelerate the path from data to decision while upholding enterprise trust.

Live Query for BigQuery allows analytic workflows built in Alteryx One to execute natively in Google Cloud. This leverages BigQuery's performance, scalability, and security features while keeping all business logic centralized and governed.

Business professionals can now interact intuitively with full-fidelity BigQuery datasets through a no-code interface. They prepare data, apply complex logic, and run calculations directly in the warehouse—eliminating the need for downloads, spreadsheets, or manual SQL—leading to faster iteration and greater agility in responding to business changes.

For IT and data governance teams, the in-place model delivers architectural simplicity and enhanced control. Workflows remain entirely within Google Cloud, minimizing unmanaged data extracts, improving auditability, and strengthening overall security posture.

Organizations achieve several core benefits through this approach:

  • Direct data preparation, business logic application, and calculations within BigQuery.
  • Execution of governed, automated workflows at full warehouse scale.
  • Preservation of centralized governance, security policies, and high performance.
  • Faster adaptation and maintainability for teams closest to business operations.

"Enterprises are learning that AI can't guess its way to trusted outcomes," said Ben Canning, Chief Product Officer at Alteryx. "Models don't inherently understand the quality, context, or business definitions behind revenue, risk scoring, or compliance. Through this collaboration and by leveraging Google Cloud, Alteryx is able to embed governed, repeatable logic directly into BigQuery, enabling the people who know the business best to create and maintain it. Alteryx helps ensure AI outcomes stay aligned with how the business operates, even as it evolves."

"Data analytics remains a critical component of every enterprise's digital transformation strategy," said Yasmeen Ahmad, Managing Director, Product Management, Data & AI Cloud at Google Cloud. "Utilizing Google Cloud's BigQuery, Alteryx will power new capabilities that can improve how business teams access and analyze data, enabling real-world value and faster insights for organizations."

"As we continue to deepen our partnership with Google Cloud, we are helping organizations gain a faster, simpler path to adopting and scaling a Google-first analytics experience," said Rajkumar Irudayaraj, Senior Vice President, Global Technology and Innovation Partners at Alteryx. "By making Alteryx available on Google Cloud Marketplace, we're helping customers accelerate adoption, simplify procurement, and empower teams working in BigQuery to drive smarter, faster business outcomes."

The combined capabilities of Alteryx and BigQuery create a secure, scalable foundation for enterprise analytics and AI. They transform diverse data sources into reliable, explainable insights, automate preparation of AI-ready datasets, and support rapid adaptation to evolving business requirements across revenue, risk, compliance, and operations.
