Ado.net Entity Framework

Question

Can we use ADO.net Entity Framework 4.o with other databases like Oracle PostgreSql MySql. If yes then please provide the example with Postgresql. Thanx.

Vulpes · Answer

Yes Entity Framework providers do exist for those 3 databases. There are 2 for PostgreSQL: Npgsql and Devart's dotConnect. Check these blogs for example code using the former: http://brice-lambson.blogspot.co.uk/2012/10/entity-framework-on-postgresql.html http://fxjr.blogspot.co.uk/2013/06/npgsql-code-first-entity-framework-431.html
