Chapter 1: Growing up from ADO

In This Chapter

ADO .NET presents a robust and revolutionary data access architecture at the core of the Microsoft .NET strategy. Being an integral member of the core class libraries of the .NET Framework, ADO .NET is nothing like its predecessor. While it does provide some traditional interfaces for backward compatibility and ADO migration, the rich set of tools available in the System.Data namespace that holds ADO .NET goes far beyond the most wonderful magic one can perform with ADO.

This chapter is about the differences between a father and a son. It is important for you, the ADO programmer, to understand the differences at the core conceptual level before you attempt to dive into anything that involves ADO .NET.
