LINQ: Reconciling Objects, Relations and XML in the .NET Framework
Summary: LINQ unifies objects, relations and XML with a common set of query operators. XLinq and DLinq provide APIs; XML queries use an in-memory XQuery-like model, while DLinq maps relational data to objects and pushes queries to the store.
