# Announcing! Everything Data Connect Series

*Published October 22, 2024 by Andrea Wu (Developer Advocate)*

---
> **Note:** Firebase Data Connect has been renamed to SQL Connect. Learn more in the [SQL Connect announcement](https://firebase.blog/posts/2026/04/whats-new-sql-connect).

With all the excitement around Firebase Data Connect, we’re even more excited to announce a blog post series, “Everything Data Connect”! We’ll deep-dive into multiple topics for you to learn more about using Data Connect, as well as share best practices to make the best use out of it.

### What is Firebase Data Connect?

In case you missed it, Data Connect was announced at Google I/O 2024. It’s our response to repeated requests that Firebase offers a SQL-based database platform for app development! [Data Connect](https://firebase.google.com/products/data-connect) lets your Firebase apps connect directly to a PostgreSQL database hosted on Cloud SQL. To learn more, see the [blog post](https://firebase.blog/posts/2024/05/introducing-firebase-data-connect), [video](https://youtu.be/7OdVatEI85o), and [documentation](https://firebase.google.com/docs/data-connect).

### The Series

This series is all about learning what’s unique and powerful about Data Connect. We’re going to assume you are already familiar with app development and relational databases, so we won’t go over any basic database concepts.

We’ll launch new blog posts for this series as they get written, and for your convenience, you can bookmark this post and check it for new content related to this series. We’ll be sure to announce each launched post on Firebase’s [X](https://x.com/firebase) and [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/firebase) if you’d like to follow us there. The topics we’re planning to cover in much more depth are:
- data modeling
- queries
- mutations
- end-to-end setups
- generated SDKs
