LINQ to SQL is not dead - can haz dataz
Saturday, April 4, 2009 at 3:46PM A lot of conversations I’ve had with people lately always seem to have the, now obligatory “Well, LINQ to SQL is dead so…”. It’s really starting to get monotonous how many times a day I hear this said by someone.
According to John Sheehan who’s attending Twin Cities Code Camp even presenters are informing their session attendee’s that LINQ to SQL is dead.
I’m going to make this as simple as possible. It’s not.
While I was attending MIX09 in March I had dinner with Scott Hanselman along with some other attendee’s of the conference. One of the topics that came up was LINQ to SQL and Scott had mentioned that there are currently 5 developers on the LINQ to SQL team. That’s 2 more than the current 3 on the ASP.NET MVC team. For a dead project, that would be a lot of man hours to waste.
So, please inform your fellow developers, dbas and friends that LINQ to SQL is not dead.
