ADO.NET is a data access technology from Microsoft .Net Framework , which provides communication between relational and non-relational systems through a common set of components . ADO.NET was built for a disconnected architecture , so it enables truly disconnected data access and data manipulation through its Dataset Object, which is completely independent from the Data Source.
The two key components of ADO.NET are Data Providers and DataSet . The .Net Framework includes mainly three Data Providers for ADO.NET.
