Handling Soft Deletes in EF Core
When working with business applications, permanently deleting data is often undesirable. Records may need to be restored, audited or retained for compliance purposes. Soft deletes provide a simple solution by marking records as deleted rather than removing them from the database. In this article, we'll explore how to implement soft deletes in Entity Framework Core using query filters and save interception techniques.
Writing Raw SQL When Entity Framework Isn’t Enough
Entity Framework makes database access straightforward, handling most queries with minimal code.
