Language Integrated Query (LINQ) technology for relational databases. It allows you to use C# to write strongly typed queries. For EF Core: 3, 5.
Alternative (not MS based) Language Integrated Query (LINQ) technology for relational databases. It allows you to use C# to write strongly typed SQL queries. For EF Core: 3, 5, 6.
