Today we are releasing the final version of Entity Framework Core 2.0, alongside .NET Core 2.0 and ASP.NET Core 2.0.

Entity Framework (EF) Core is the lightweight, extensible, and cross-platform version of Entity Framework, the popular Object/Relational Mapping (O/RM) framework for .NET. 

All of these tools are shipped as part of Visual Studio but are not installed in the same way as you would install them manually. They are all located in the Visual Studio install directory and are used by some of the new features such as the Task Runner Explorer and the new ASP.NET 5 project system. 

New In-Memory OLTP improvements in CTP3.1 include:

• Unique indexes in memory-optimized tables, to complement the support for unique constraints that was released in CTP3
• LOB data types varchar(max), nvarchar(max), and varbinary(max) in memory-optimized tables and natively compiled modules
• Indexes with NULLable key columns in memory-optimized tables

Syntax inputdate AT TIME ZONE timezone.

• Inputdate: An expression that can be resolved to a smalldatetime, datetime, datetime2, or datetimeoffset value.
• Timezone: Name of the destination time zone in standard format as enumerated by Windows. Available time zones can be found by querying sys.time_zone_info.
