subject: Re: [SystemiDotNet] Microsoft's Entity Framework and the IBMi

As far as I know Data Direct providse an Entity Framework DB2 option. Additionally IBM DB2 Connect product also provides it as far as I know. All options cost $$$.

This is why we went with NHibernate instead of Entity Framework a few years back. Back then Entity Framework was a 1.0 product, might be better though today. I don't think there is a free Entity Framework option for IBM DB2 like there is with other database platforms.

NHibernate provides the same feature set as Entity Framework and it's been around a lot longer, only downside is it's LINQ implementation is not as good.

My 2 cents.
