In this chapter, we looked at how to manage transactions using Entity Framework. We looked at the default behavior of Entity Framework when it comes to transaction management. We also looked at how we can take control of transaction management using Entity Framework. At this juncture, we are equipped with most of the information needed to implement any application using Entity Framework. In the next chapter, we will try to create a sample application that will use Entity Framework for data access. This sample application will give you an idea of how to use Entity Framework in real-world applications.

Overview of this book
<p>Data access is an integral part of any software application. Entity Framework provides a model-based system that makes data access effortless for developers by freeing you from writing similar data access code for all of your domain models.</p>
<p>Mastering Entity Framework provides you with a range of options when developing a data-oriented application. You’ll get started by managing the database relationships as Entity relationships and perform domain modeling using Entity Framework. You will then explore how you can reuse data access layer code such as stored procedures and table-valued functions, and perform various typical activities such as validations and error handling. You’ll learn how to retrieve data by querying the Entity Data Model and understand how to use LINQ to Entities and Entity SQL to query the Entity Data Model.</p>
