No Rip and ReplaceOpen SourceYour Cloud or On-Prem

    You don’t have to migrate everything.
    Just move the expensive part.

    A handful of heavy queries drive most of your Snowflake or BigQuery bill. Point GizmoSQL at just those high-cost workloads — the giant scans, the scheduled aggregations, the dashboards hammering the warehouse — and leave the rest of your stack exactly where it is. Same SQL, same open data, a fraction of the cost.

    Giant table scans

    The full-table aggregations that scan terabytes and dominate the bill.

    Scheduled batch jobs

    Nightly rollups and ETL that run on a timer whether anyone is watching or not.

    Always-on BI dashboards

    Dashboards that hit the warehouse live all day. Serve them from GizmoSQL instead.

    No rip and replace

    Keep Snowflake or BigQuery for everything that is fine today. Only the costly jobs move.

    Live in days, not a project

    Same SQL and the same tables. Repoint a few jobs, not a quarter-long migration.

    Same data, your cloud

    Reads your existing open formats in place. Nothing to re-ingest, nothing leaves your infra.

    Offloading warehouse workloads — FAQ

    Do I have to migrate my whole warehouse to save money?

    No. In most accounts a handful of scan-heavy workloads drive the majority of the bill. Point GizmoSQL at just those — the giant scans, scheduled aggregations, and always-on dashboards — and keep Snowflake or BigQuery for everything else.

    What should I move first?

    Start with the recurring, scan-heavy work: full-table aggregations, nightly rollups and ETL that run on a schedule, and BI dashboards that hit the warehouse all day. They are the top of the bill and the easiest to repoint.

    How long does it take to offload a workload?

    Days, not quarters. GizmoSQL speaks standard SQL and reads Parquet, Iceberg, Delta, and DuckLake in place on your object storage, so moving a workload is a repoint — not a re-ingestion or a rewrite.

    How much will I actually save?

    On the published, reproducible TPC-H 1 TB benchmark, GizmoSQL is 16x cheaper than Snowflake, 31x cheaper than Databricks SQL, and 138x cheaper than BigQuery per run. Real workloads vary — and if you want it done for you, the migration sprint guarantees at least a 50% cut on the workloads we move.
