EF Core Architecture, Document Databases, and MongoDB
Entity Framework Core (EF Core) was built from the ground up to support both relational and document databases. This is achieved through a service-oriented architecture (SOA) that decomposes all EF functionality into discrete services, together with a configurable convention-based modelling system. Database providers use different implementations of key services to support best-practice mapping to either kind of database. This is exemplified by the MongoDB provider, which delivers rich document mapping and query support to .NET apps.
