Oracle Database Support for Microsoft® ADO.NET Entity Framework

Oracle plans to enhance Oracle Data Provider for .NET (ODP.NET) to support ADO.NET Entity Framework. Oracle database developers will be able to use Visual Studio tools and APIs that are a standard part of the ADO.NET Entity Framework.

ADO.NET Entity Framework is a client-side/middle-tier technology. As such, the Oracle’s client software and ODP.NET will integrate directly with Entity Framework to support data access with the Oracle Database.

Oracle plans to certify with ADO.NET Entity Framework with the following ODP.NET versions and timeframes:

Software	Timeframe (Calendar Year)
ODP.NET Beta with Entity Framework	Around the end of 2010
ODP.NET Production with Entity Framework	2011
