Microsoft Entity Framework

Entity Framework is an Open-Source Object-Relational Mapping (ORM) Framework for .NET applications that enables .NET developers to work with relational data using domain-specific objects without focusing on the underlying database tables and columns where actually the data is stored. That means the Entity Framework eliminates the need for writing the data-access code that developers usually need to write.

In this article, I am going to discuss the Entity Framework Architecture in Detail. Please read our previous article where we discussed the Overview of the Entity Framework. At the end of this article, you will understand the following pointers in detail.

In this article, I am going to discuss the Entity Framework Context Class with an example. Please read our previous article where we discussed the Architecture of Entity Framework in Detail.

In this article, I will discuss the Entity States in Entity Framework. Please read our previous article where we discussed Entities in Entity Framework. The Entity state represents the state of an entity. An entity is always in any one of the following states.

In this article, I am going to discuss Development Approach with the Entity Framework. Please read our previous article where we discussed the Different States of Entity in Entity Framework. The entity framework provides three different approaches when working with the database and data access layer in your application as per your project requirement. These are

In this article, I am going to give you a brief introduction to the Entity Framework Database First Approach. In the Entity Framework, the Database first approach is one of the three approaches to interact with the database. The other two approaches are Model First Approach and Code First Approach. Here, in this article, we are going to keep the focus on the Database First Approach of Entity Framework and will learn how to use the DB First approach of Entity Framework to interact with the database.

In this article, I am going to discuss the Entity Data Model (EDM) of Entity Framework Database First Approach in detail. We are going to work with the same example that we created in our previous article. Please read our previous article before proceeding to this article where we created the required database tables, views, and stored procedure with test data as well as we also discussed the step by step procedure to interact with the database using Entity Framework Database First Approach.

In this article, I am going to discuss the Model Browser in Entity Framework Database First Approach in detail. Please read our previous article where we discussed the Entity Data Model (EDM) in detail.

In this article, I am going to discuss DbContext class in Entity Framework Database First Approach. Please read our previous article where we discussed Model Browser in Entity Framework. At the end of this article, you will understand the need and use of the Entity Framework DbContext class in detail.

In this article, I am going to discuss DbSet class in Entity Framework Database First Approach with Examples. Please read our previous article where we discussed DbContext in Entity Framework. At the end of this article, you will understand the need and use of Entity Framework DbSet in detail.

In this article, I am going to discuss the Relationships Between Entities in Entity Framework Database First Approach i.e. at the end of this article, you will understand how entity framework manages the relationships between entities. Please read our previous article where we discussed Entity Framework DbSet in detail.

In this article, I am going to discuss how to perform CRUD Operations in Entity Framework Database First Approach. Please read our previous article where we discussed the Relationships Between Entities in Entity Framework.

In this article, I am going to discuss Querying in Entity Framework. Please read our previous article where we discussed how to perform CRUD Operations in Entity Framework Database First Approach.

In this article, I am going to discuss LINQ to Entities Queries in Entity Framework. Please read our previous article where we discussed Different Approaches of Querying in Entity Framework.

In this article, I am going to explain Entity Framework Disconnected Entities with Examples. Please read our previous article, where we discussed Explicit Loading in Entity Framework. At the end of this article, you will understand what are exactly Disconnected Entities in Entity Framework and the different methods to attach disconnected entities in EF6 with examples.

In this article, I am going to discuss how to work with the disconnected entities in Entity Framework. Please read our previous article where we discussed the Different Methods to Attach Disconnected Entities in Entity Framework. The Entities which are not tracked by the context object (DbContext object) are known as disconnected entities in Entity Framework and at the end of this article, you will learn how to insert, update and delete a disconnected entity in Entity Framework.

In this article, I am going to discuss Working with Asynchronous Programming with Entity Framework. Please read our previous article where we discussed how to work with Disconnected Entity in Entity Framework. Asynchronous operations are used to avoid blocking a thread while the query is executed in the database. At the end of this article, you will understand how to perform Asynchronous CRUD Operation using Entity Framework.

In this article, I am going to discuss Bulk Insert, Update, and Delete in Entity Framework. Please read our previous article where we discussed Asynchronous Programming with Entity Framework. At the end of this article, you will understand how to insert, update, and delete multiple entities in Entity Framework.
