Synopsis

Entity Framework Core 8 Complex Types: The Essential Guide to Designing Clean, High-Performance .NET Domain Models

Tired of Database Bloat and Imperfect Domain Models?

For too long, modeling the heart of your application—your Value Objects—has been an uneasy compromise in Entity Framework. You had to choose between code elegance and persistence efficiency, often sacrificing one for the other. With the arrival of Complex Types in EF Core 8, that era of compromise is over.

This is the definitive guide to mastering EF Core 8's game-changing feature. It's time to build clean, high-performance, and perfectly aligned .NET domain models that reflect your business reality with grace and precision. Stop cluttering your database schema with unnecessary tables for simple data groupings like Address or Money. Start writing code that is truly driven by your domain.

Who Needs This Book?

This book is crafted for intermediate to advanced .NET Developers, Software Architects, and Domain-Driven Design (DDD) practitioners who are committed to clean architecture and maximizing application performance. If you work with Entity Framework Core and want to implement true Value Objects, this is your indispensable reference.

What You Will Gain: The Benefits

• Elevated Domain Modeling: Effortlessly implement true DDD Value Objects without the compromises of Owned Types.
• Superior Performance: Achieve faster query execution and reduced database storage by mapping value objects directly to owner columns.
• Reduced Schema Sprawl: Significantly decrease the number of tables in your database, leading to a simpler, more manageable schema.
• Confidence in Implementation: Understand the subtle, yet crucial, behavioral differences between Complex Types, Owned Types, and Entity Types.
• Maintainable Codebase: Design immutable, shareable complex types that naturally lead to more robust and less error-prone code.

What You Should Expect to Learn

• Understanding the core difference: Complex Types vs. Owned Types vs. Entities.
• Detailed configuration: Fluent API and Data Annotation approaches for complex types.
• Best practices for creating immutable Value Objects using C# record types.
• Working with shared instances of complex types across multiple entities and properties.
• How EF Core 8 handles querying, saving, and updating entities that contain complex types.
• Practical, real-world examples to guide your implementation from simple properties to nested complex types.

Don't let outdated modeling techniques hold back your .NET applications. Embrace the future of data persistence. Clean code, optimal performance, and perfectly modeled Value Objects are now within your reach.
