Re:SQL pipe syntax available in public preview in BigQuery by valyala on Thursday February 13, 2025 @07:07PM (#43043083)
Pipe-based query syntax has been appeared a better alternative to SQL in many databases, because it is easier to read, write and maintain. The only thing is that this syntax isn't standardized among databases yet.

BTW, we at VictoriaLogs also use pipe-based syntax for LogsQL query language [1] since the first release in 2023. Recently I wrote an SQL -> LogsQL conversion guide [2], which has been appeared quite clear and easy to follow. This guide was written during the conversion of SQL queries to LogsQL at ClickBench benchmark from ClickHouse [3].
