what is Entity Framework with POCO

Question

What is the benefit of using POCO? I don\'t understand the meaning of Persistence Ignorance, what does this mean? That the poco object can\'t expose things like Save? I can\

Answer 1

POCO class is the class which doesn’t depend on any framework specific base class. It is like any other normal .net class that is why it is called “Plain Old CLR Objects” These POCO entities (also known as persistence-ignorant objects) support most of the same LINQ queries as EntityObject derived entities.
