What’s new at Firebase Summit 2022

Firebase Summit 2022, held as a hybrid event in New York City and online, announced updates aimed at helping developers build, scale, secure, test, and personalize applications across Firebase and connected Google and third-party tools. Firebase Hosting added preview support for deploying dynamic web frameworks such as Next.js and Angular Universal through its CLI, while Cloud Firestore introduced document counting, improved scalability for writes and connections, and time-to-live policies for automated data deletion. Authentication gained multi-factor authentication, OpenID Connect and SAML support, blocking functions, and audit logging, alongside expanded Cloud Storage Security Rules capabilities. Firebase also launched an Extensions Marketplace with integrations for video chat, search, and payments, and enabled developers to create their own extensions through a provider alpha program. Quality-focused updates included Firebase Test Lab integration with Android Gradle Managed Devices and expanded Crashlytics features in Android Studio, while Remote Config personalization added the ability to optimize for event value, with one customer reporting a 4% increase in advertising revenue.
