We have a data source accessible from an XML RPC web service where we can send CRUD commands.

Is it possible to use this with EF ?

No unless you write your own provider. EF has very limited set of providers available. All these providers targets relational databases.

  • Is is possible to write a provider? I mean, for someone outside Microsoft. Is there any docs available? How feasible would it be? – Stécy Dec 07 '11 at 19:52
  • It is a lot of work and it will probably not work because EF provider targets database and works with ADO.NET classes like DbCommand, DbConnection, etc. – Ladislav Mrnka Dec 07 '11 at 20:09
