The ADO Entity Framework is Microsoft's magnificent implementation for an object relationship mapping (ORM) framework. The Entity Framework allows us to develop applications for the .NET framework that interact with a database without writing a single SQL command. The Entity Framework maps each and every object with a specific row in a specific table on our database. Changes we introduce in our objects are automatically reflected in their database representation. The Entity Framework updates the tables for us. There are many advantabes for working with an ORM framework. One of them is our ability to develop our code without being dependant on a specific database. If you are already familiar with frameworks such as Hibernate you will be amazed of the similarity and the simplicity of using the Entity Framework. The Entity Framework allows us to query the data using LINQ to Entities, that aims at replacing LINQ to SQL.
