What you'll learn

In Entity Framework Core solutions, you need insight into how data access is handled, and to provide standards for how the database is used from Entity Framework Core. In this course, EF Core 10 Internals and Extensibility, you’ll gain the ability to create DbContext-wide operations and cross cutting concerns. First, you’ll explore using interceptors to make changes during the operation of the DbContext. Next, you’ll discover how to use conventions to normalize how the database is structured. Finally, you’ll learn how to upgrade your Entity Framework Core projects to the latest version of .NET. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge needed to manage large Entity Framework Core models and provide consistency across your use of EF Core.
