Twin Cities Code Camp

Data access has evolved over time to make working with databases easier and more productive. In the Microsoft .NET Framework version 3.5, access to data is integrated natively into the languages. In this session, we look at some of these technologies including LINQ and Astoria and see how they impact our development approach. We'll dive into the ADO.NET Entity framework and explore how to create and use the models to map our way back to the data stores.
