Converting From Entity Framework - Overview
This article is relevant to entity models that utilize the deprecated Visual Studio integration of Telerik Data Access. The current documentation of the Data Access framework is available here.
The purpose of this section is to show you how to migrate your data access layer currently using Entity Framework to use Telerik Data Access instead. This process is partially automated, as you can use the Telerik Data Access Entity Framework Converter wizard as a start. However, this guide will also show you how to deal with most common problems when you replace Entity Framework with Telerik Data Access.
