Introduction

In this chapter, we will learn how to access data in other ways different to Entity Framework in ASP.NET Core. We will do that with micro ORMs, such as Dapper and OrmLite (but we could use also Massive, SimpleData, or PetaPoco); with NoSQL Databases, such as MongoDB and ElasticSearch (but we could also use Redis, RavenDB, DocumentDB, and so many others); and with the database capabilities of Azure.
