Do I need Entity framework to work with Oracle database?

Question

Oracle

I know ORACLE PL/SQL. I am learning ASP.NET MVC. All tutorials use a link with the Entity Framework. Do I need to know EF? Is it possible to work without it in conjunction with .NET MVC + ORACLE? How is it better?

Answer 1

Is it possible to work without it in conjunction with .NET MVC + ORACLE? How is it better?

Is OOP required to write some kind of amateur code as a hobby? No.
Is OOP required to write large maintainable projects with complex logic? Yes.
EF is just an OOP interface to the database. The previous two questions and answers also work with respect to the question of the need to use EF and its analogues.

Answer 2

better through ef because it is used by the majority and sql is used only for complex queries
