 | Constructing your Data Access Layer around the ADO.NET Entity FrameworkSpeaker(s): Rob Vettor
While most enterprise applications are object-oriented, the data upon which they depend is not. Binding these two platforms together can result in significant amounts of lost productivity and a less than optimal solution.
Come see how to reduce your development effort by leveraging the many features of the ADO.NET Entity Framework in your Data Access Layer.
In this session, we’ll…
· Explore the Entity Framework and its related components
· Design an Entity Data Model and programmatically interact with it through a variety of examples
· Show how to implement Entity Framework in a multi-tiered application
· Demonstrate advanced mapping scenarios
· Explore the new features of the upcoming Entity Framework 4.0
You’ll walk-away with a clear understanding of how the Entity Framework can simplify your DAL and enable you to program against a conceptual model of your data, instead of the actual data store itself.
