This course will teach you to exploit the full capabilities of Microsoft's revolutionary new platform for universal data access: ADO.NET Entity Framework 4.0 and WCF Data Services, which are included in .NET 4.0 and Visual Studio 2010.

The Entity Framework provides a conceptual model that more closely resembles entities and relationships in the real world and includes an industrial-strength ORM (Object-Relational Mapping) tool that allows you connect to almost any backend database. In this course we will cover many of the new features in EF 4.0 that enable you to build service-oriented, n-tier applications using test-driven methodologies with robust architectural design patterns.

You'll get answers to these questions:
  • When should I use LINQ instead of "classic" ADO.NET?
  • How is LINQ to Entities different from LINQ to SQL? When should I choose one over the other?
  • How can I use stored procedures with the Entity Framework to retrieve and update relational databases?
  • How can I create and consume data from the Internet cloud using REST-ful data services?
  • How do I build real-world n-tier applications using LINQ and the Entity Framework?
  • How do I leverage EF 4.0's support for POCO's (Plain Old CLR Objects) and chose a change-tracking mechanism that is appropriate for my application design?


Come and learn to take advantage of LINQ and the Entity Framework 4.0 in your applications today!
