You have a complex inheritance hierarchy in your entity model. How can Entity Framework help you map these entities to the appropriate database tables?

  • Entity Splitting
  • Table-per-Concrete-Type (TPC)
  • Table-per-Hierarchy (TPH)
  • Table-per-Type (TPT)
Entity Framework provides support for mapping complex inheritance hierarchies to database tables using Table-per-Hierarchy (TPH) strategy. In TPH mapping, all classes in the inheritance hierarchy are mapped to a single database table, with a discriminator column used to differentiate between different types of entities. This approach simplifies the database schema by reducing the number of tables required to represent the inheritance hierarchy, making it easier to manage and query related entities.
