How BigQuery Processes a JOIN Between Two Large Tables Internally Step by Step

Google Cloud BigQuery, when a JOIN is performed between two large tables, BigQuery uses its distributed execution engine to scan, shuffle, and match data across multiple workers in parallel. This allows BigQuery to process billions of rows efficiently.
