The Microsoft Entity Framework support with the IBM Data Server Provider for .NET

The IBM Data Server Provider for .NET provides support for the Microsoft Entity Framework through the installation of the IBM Database Add-Ins for Visual Studio software. You must have an environment with a supported Microsoft Visual Studio software, an IBM data server client package and the IBM Database Add-Ins for Visual Studio installed.

It is possible to create either database objects from business entities or create entities from existing database objects. 

From Db2® 11.1.4.4, the support for creating database objects from entities (also called Code First support of Entity Framework) is provided for Db2 for LUW servers.

You can generate EDM schemas, write and execute Entity SQL, and write and execute LINQ statements with the IBM Data Server Provider for .NET and the Microsoft Entity Framework.
