Linq to SQL VS Entity Framework

Question

I am new to development for the Windows Server platform. Can someone tell me the difference between Linq and SQL and EF4? I need help choosing the right technology.

Answer 1

L2SQL is deprecated obsolete . Although it will be supported, no future changes are planned.

For this reason only (since you started) use Entity Framework 4.

If you want to compare them, check out my answer here .

This question is very subjective and may be closed since there is a war between EFers and NHibernaters.
