The following are some of the important features of ADO.NET: Contains a number of classes that provide you with various methods and attributes to manage the communication between your application and data source. Enables you to access different data sources, such as Microsoft SQL Server, and XML, as per your requirements. Provides a rich set of features, such as connection and commands that can be used to develop robust and highly efficient data services in .NET applications. Provides various data providers that are specific to databases produced by various vendors. For example, ADO.NET has a separate provider to access data from Oracle databases; whereas, another provider is used to access data from SQL databases.
