The Sybase Entity Framework Data Provider

The DataDirect Connect for ADO.NET Sybase Entity Framework data provider (the Sybase Entity Framework data provider) supports Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise servers. For the latest support and certification information, visit the DataDirect Product Compatibility Guide.

The Sybase Entity Framework data provider supports the following programming features:

• Database First
• "Plain-old" CLR objects (POCO) entities
• DbContext

The Sybase Entity Framework data provider uses the Sybase data provider to communicate with the Sybase database server. This means that the functionality defined by the Sybase data provider applies to the Sybase Entity Framework data provider unless otherwise noted in this section. Similarly, any performance configurations made to the Sybase data provider are realized by the Sybase Entity Framework data provider.

See the README text file shipped with your Progress DataDirect product for the file name of the Sybase Entity Framework data provider.
