Mid EF Core

How does LINQ translate to SQL?

What limitations are there?

  • EF Core translates LINQ queries into SQL using expression trees.
  • Only supported LINQ operators and expressions can be translated.
  • Limitations:
  • Certain C# methods or complex expressions cannot be translated and

cause runtime exceptions.

  • Client-side evaluation may occur, which can hurt performance.
  • Use .AsEnumerable() to switch to client-side processing intentionally.
