What is Entity Framework?

Entity Framework (EF) is an open-source object-relational mapper (ORM) framework for .NET. It enables developers to work with a database using .NET objects. This eliminates the need for most of the data-access code that developers usually need to write. EF supports LINQ queries, change tracking, updates, and schema migrations.
