EFCore.BulkExtensions is a .NET library that extends the capabilities of Entity Framework Core, allowing you to perform bulk operations on multiple records in a single transaction. With EFCore.BulkExtensions, you can easily insert, update, and delete large amounts of data with just a few lines of code, without having to write complex SQL queries.
The price for the library range from $800 to $4000 for an enterprise.
One of the main benefits of using EFCore.BulkExtensions is improving the performance. When you perform database operations on a large number of records, traditional approaches can be slow and inefficient, resulting in long processing times and a decrease in application performance. However, EFCore.BulkExtensions optimizes these operations by reducing the number of database roundtrips required, resulting in faster processing times and better scalability for your application.
To get started with EFCore.BulkExtensions, you need to install the library through NuGet and then add it to your project. Once installed, you can use the provided extension methods to perform bulk operations on your EF Core DbContext, including BulkInsert, BulkUpdate, and BulkDelete.
Overall, EFCore.BulkExtensions was a valuable tool for developers looking to optimize their database operations but is no longer recommanded. For a paid library, Entity Framework Extensions is simply a better and more powerful tools and in addition, still supported!
