# Data warehouses and cloud storage

In this part of the knowledge base, you’ll find instructions for using data warehouses and cloud storage destinations with Supermetrics.

- Find out the prerequisites and configuration for different data warehouse destinations, such as [Amazon S3](/v1/docs/about-amazon-s3-prerequisites), [Google Cloud Storage](/v1/docs/about-google-cloud-storage-prerequisites), and [BigQuery](/v1/docs/about-bigquery-prerequisites).
- Learn how to [connect to a data warehouse destination](/v1/docs/how-to-connect-to-a-data-warehouse-destination) and [create a transfer](/v1/docs/how-to-create-a-transfer).
  - Note that for BigQuery (marketplace), there are [separate instructions to enroll a Supermetrics data source](/v1/docs/how-to-enroll-a-supermetrics-data-source-in-bigquery-marketplace) and [create your transfers](/v1/docs/how-to-create-a-bigquery-marketplace-transfer).
- Create [backfills](/v1/docs/how-to-backfill-data) and select how to [refresh your data](/v1/docs/about-refresh-settings-in-data-warehouse-transfers).

## Get started with data warehouses and cloud storage

Follow these steps to get started with Supermetrics for data warehouse destinations.

1. First, start a [14-day free trial for Supermetrics for the data warehouse destination of your choice](https://supermetrics.com/start-trial), unless you have already done so.
2. Next, log in to the [Supermetrics Hub](https://hub.supermetrics.com/#register), and [configure your data warehouse destination](/v1/docs/how-to-connect-to-a-data-warehouse-destination). If you're connecting to BigQuery (marketplace), follow [these marketplace-specific instructions](/v1/docs/how-to-enroll-a-supermetrics-data-source-in-bigquery-marketplace).
3. The next step is to [create your first transfer](/v1/docs/how-to-create-a-transfer) and start pulling data! For BigQuery (marketplace), follow [these instructions](/v1/docs/how-to-create-a-bigquery-marketplace-transfer). Take a look at our [data source connection guides](/v1/docs/connect) for the details you need to connect.

There are standard denormalized table groups for the data sources that you can use. Optionally, you can also [modify the table for your use case with Table Manager](/v1/docs/how-to-create-a-custom-table-group-formerly-custom-schema). For a list of the available tables for different sources, see the [documentation for each data source](/v1/docs/connect).

The following video highlights the main steps for connecting to a data warehouse destination from the Supermetrics Hub.
