Async Soqls
Async Soql is a Salesforce feature which allows to query Big Objects in asynchronous manner which otherwise times out when run as synchronous way.
Salesforce doesn't have any UI to execute Async Soqls but user must deal with creating Json content describing the Async Soql and interact with Rest API to submit jobs and get the status of previously submitted jobs.
Realfire provides a convenient way to create Async Soql profiles, execute them and view the job status.
Here are some additional reference material.
