 In this chapter, you'll first learn the basics of the DBI package: how to use it to connect to a database and then retrieve data with a SQL[^databases-1] query.
 **SQL**, short for **s**tructured **q**uery **l**anguage, is the lingua franca of databases, and is an important language for all data scientists to learn.
 That said, we're not going to start with SQL, but instead we'll teach you dbplyr, which can translate your dplyr code to the SQL.

 Fortunately, dbplyr is designed to handle this problem and generates different translations for different databases.
 It's not perfect, but it's continually improving, and if you hit a problem you can file an issue [on GitHub](https://github.com/tidyverse/dbplyr/issues/) to help us do better.
