Want faster EF queries? Check out Query Splitting

Summary

The transcript discusses Entity Framework Core's query splitting feature, which allows developers to break database queries into multiple SQL statements instead of a single comprehensive query. By enabling split queries, EF Core generates separate queries for different database tables, such as selecting categories and then separately retrieving related products. While this approach increases the number of database queries, it provides more flexibility in data retrieval and can be beneficial in certain complex data loading scenarios. Developers should consider query splitting as a strategic option when working with related data in Entity Framework Core.
