>Entity Framework(often referred to as EF):
>a .NET Framework data-access technology to define and work with model classes.
>By default, the Entity Framework looks for a connection string named the same as the object context class (MovieDBContext for this project).
>Entity Framework is default to using LocalDB.
>LocalDB is a lightweight version of the SQL Server Express Database Engine
>LocalDB runs in a special execution mode of SQL Server Express that lets you work with databases as .mdf files.
>Typically,, LocalDB database files are stored in the App_Data folder of a web project.
>SQL Server Express is not recommended for use in production web applications.
