From mobile devices to large scale enterprise solutions in need of serious transaction support, EntitySpaces is the development tool that can meet your needs. Whether you’re writing an ASP.NET application with medium trust requirements, or a Windows.Forms application, the EntitySpaces architecture is there for you. EntitySpaces is provider independent, which means that you can run the same binary code against any of the supported databases. EntitySpaces is available in both C# and VB.NET. EntitySpaces uses no reflection, no xml files, and sports a tiny foot print of less than 200k. Pound for pound, EntitySpaces is one tough .NET architecture.
Although EntitySpaces targets both ASP.NET and Windows.Forms projects, DotNetNuke module developers will find EntitySpaces to be an attractive alternative to the DotNetNuke DAL. Many of the features listed above, including important ones like transactions, are not available when using the DotNetNuke DAL API. The EntitySpaces provider independence model we feel is much easier because it is basically transparent and provided by EntitySpaces itself. It is not left up to you, the developer, to create. EntitySpaces handles it for you. There is a sample DotNetNuke module on our main menu, take a look at the source code listing too.
