Abstract: Over the last couple of years, Entity Framework has steadily become the de facto data access story from Microsoft. With EntityFramework Code First, it became even easier to get started with an application. While EF lets you get off the ground and running fast, it’s deployment story (both first time and subsequent upgrades) has been a little sketchy. With the release 4.2 and EF Migrations, the upgrade story has been simplified a little but the first time deployment story still has a couple of points to keep in mind.
