Jacques Bosch on 31 Dec 11"Summary: In this paper we'll look at the new Entity Framework 4 that ships with .NET Framework 4 and Visual Studio 2010. I'll discuss how you can approach it's usage from a model-first perspective with the premise that you can drive database design from a model and build both your database as well as your data access layer declaratively from this model. The model contains the description of your data represented as entities and relationships providing a powerful approach to working with ADO.NET, creating a separation of concerns through an abstraction between a model definition and its implementation."
