services / Google Cloud / BigQuery config

A BigQuery config is a set of organization settings applied across BigQuery. It is modified using the `ALTER ORGANIZATION` SQL statement, and read by executing a `SELECT` statement on tables in the `{region}.INFORMATION_SCHEMA` schema.

Certain of these settings can affect operations (such as modification of default time-outs or timezones) when those operations operate with default settings.
