dependabot · 2025-08-04T17:48:02Z

Updated Microsoft.Data.SqlClient from 5.2.2 to 6.1.0.

Release notes

Sourced from Microsoft.Data.SqlClient's releases.

6.1.0

Release Notes

Stable Release 6.1.0 - 2025-07-25

This update brings the following changes since the
6.0.2 stable release:

Added

Added dedicated SQL Server vector datatype support

What Changed:

Optimized vector communications between MDS and SQL Server 2025, employing a
custom binary format over the TDS protocol.
(#3433,
#3443)
Reduced processing load compared to existing JSON-based vector support.
Initial support for 32-bit single-precision floating point vectors.

Who Benefits:

Applications moving large vector data sets will see beneficial improvements
to processing times and memory requirements.
Vector-specific APIs are ready to support future numeric representations with
a consistent look-and-feel.

Impact:

Reduced transmission and processing times for vector operations versus JSON
using SQL Server 2025 preview:
- Reads: 50x improvement
- Writes: 3.3x improvement
- Bulk Copy: 19x improvement
- (Observed with vector column of max 1998 size, and 10,000 records for each
  operation.)
Improved memory footprint due to the elimination of JSON
serialization/deserialization and string representation bloat.
For backwards compatibility with earlier SQL Server Vector implementations,
applications may continue to use JSON strings to send/receive vector data,
although they will not see any of the performance improvements noted above.

Revived .NET Standard 2.0 target support

What Changed:

Support for targeting .NET Standard 2.0 has returned.
(#3381)
Support had previously been removed in the 6.0 release, with the
community voicing concerns.

6.1.0-preview2

Preview Release 6.1.0-preview2.25178.5 - 2025-06-27

This update brings the following changes since the 6.1.0-preview1 release:

Revived .NET Standard 2.0 target support

What Changed:

Support for targeting .NET Standard 2.0 has returned. (#3381)
Support had previously been removed in the 6.0 release, with the [community voicing concerns] (Microsoft.Data.SqlClient 6.0 and .Net Standard dotnet/SqlClient#3115).

Who Benefits:

Libraries that depend on MDS may seamlessly target any of the following frameworks:
- .NET Standard 2.0
- .NET Framework 4.6.2 and above
- .NET 8.0
- .NET 9.0
Applications should continue to target runtimes.
- The MDS .NET Standard 2.0 target framework support does not include an actual implementation, and cannot be used with a runtime.
- An application's build/publish process should always pick the appropriate MDS .NET/.NET Framework runtime implementation.
- Custom build/publish actions that incorrectly try to deploy the MDS .NET Standard 2.0 reference DLL at runtime are not supported.

Impact:

## 9.0.0-rc.1.24451.1

[Release](https://github.com/dotnet/core/releases/tag/v9.0.0-rc.1)

[Release](https://github.com/dotnet/core/releases/tag/v9.0.0-preview.6)

## 9.0.0-preview.5.24306.3

The team has been working primarily on EF Core internals, so there are no new big features in EF Core 9 (EF9) Preview 5. However, this means we really need people like you to run your code on these new internals and report back what you find. We want to fix bugs in the new internals as soon as possible in order to have a strong GA release later in the year.

That being said, there are several smaller enhancements included in preview 5. For full details, see [What's new in EF Core 9](https://learn.microsoft.com/ef/core/what-is-new/ef-core-9.0/whatsnew). To discuss the EF9 release, go to [Try EF Core 9 now!](https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/issues/33030) on GitHub.

## Enhanced database provider for Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL

We are working on significant updates in EF9 to the EF Core database provider for Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL. For preview 5, these include:

- Support for hierarchical partition keys
- Use of any numeric, bool, string, or value-converted type as a partition key

See [Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL](https://learn.microsoft.com/ef/core/what-is-new/ef-core-9.0/whatsnew#cosmos) in the _What's New_ docs for more information.

## Query translation improvements

EF9 preview 5 contains three small enhancements to query translation:

- Optimization of queries using `Count != 0` or `Count > 0`
- Translations for `TimeOnly.FromDateTime` and `TimeOnly.FromTimeSpan`

See [LINQ and SQL translation](https://learn.microsoft.com/ef/core/what-is-new/ef-core-9.0/whatsnew#linq-and-sql-translation) in the _What's New_ docs for more information.

## Everything else in preview 5

Preview 5 contains:

- [6 enhancements](https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/issues?q=is%3Aissue+milestone%3A9.0.0-preview5+is%3Aclosed+label%3Atype-enhancement+)
- [6 bug fixes](https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/issues?q=is%3Aissue+milestone%3A9.0.0-preview5+is%3Aclosed+label%3Atype-bug)

EF Core 9 preview 5 and Microsoft.Data.Sqlite contain work from the EF Team at Microsoft (@roji @AndriySvyryd @maumar @ajcvickers @cincuranet @SamMonoRT @luisquintanilla).


## 9.0.0-preview.4.24267.1

The team has been working primarily on EF Core internals, so there are no new big features in EF Core 9 (EF9) Preview 4. However, this means we really need people like you to run your code on these new internals and report back what you find. We want to fix bugs in the new internals as soon as possible in order to have a strong GA release later in the year.

That being said, there are several smaller enhancements included in preview 4. For full details, see [What's new in EF Core 9](https://learn.microsoft.com/ef/core/what-is-new/ef-core-9.0/whatsnew). To discuss the EF9 release, go to [Try EF Core 9 now!](https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/issues/33030) on GitHub.

### Enhanced database provider for Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL

We are working on significant updates in EF9 to the EF Core database provider for Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL. For preview 4, these include:

- Role-based access control (RBAC) is supported by EF9 for both management and use of containers.
- Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL does not support synchronous (blocking) access from application code. EF Core now blocks synchronous access by default, helping people fall into the pit-of-success of using async I/O.
- Cosmos primitive collection support has been updated to use the metadata and model building APIs from EF8

See [Azure Cosmos DB for NoSQL](https://learn.microsoft.com/ef/core/what-is-new/ef-core-9.0/whatsnew#cosmos) in the _What's New_ docs for more information.

## GroupBy complex types

In preview 4, EF9 now supports grouping (`GroupBy` queries) that group by a complex type instance. The resulting SQL uses groups by all members, reflecting the value object semantics of complex types.

See [GroupBy complex types](https://learn.microsoft.com/ef/core/what-is-new/ef-core-9.0/whatsnew#groupby-complex-types) in the _What's New_ docs for more information.

## Read-only primitive collections

EF8 introduced support for mapping arrays and mutable lists of primitive types. This has been expanded in EF9 to include read-only collections declared as `IReadOnlyList`, `IReadOnlyCollection`, or `ReadOnlyCollection`.

See [Read-only primitive collections](https://learn.microsoft.com/ef/core/what-is-new/ef-core-9.0/whatsnew#read-only-primitives) in the _What's New_ docs for more information.

## Everything else in preview 4

Preview 4 contains:

- [10 enhancements](https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/issues?q=is%3Aissue+milestone%3A9.0.0-preview4+is%3Aclosed+label%3Atype-enhancement+)
- [15 bug fixes](https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/issues?q=is%3Aissue+milestone%3A9.0.0-preview4+is%3Aclosed+label%3Atype-bug)

EF Core 9 preview 4 (and Microsoft.Data.Sqlite) contains work from the EF Team at Microsoft (@roji @AndriySvyryd @maumar @ajcvickers @cincuranet @SamMonoRT @luisquintanilla) as well as contributions from the EF Core community. The community PRs in EF9 Preview 4 are:

- @y0ung3r: [InMemoryTable: Make IsConcurrencyConflict() method more readable](https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/pull/33561)


## 9.0.0-preview.3.24172.4

The team has been working primarily on EF Core internals, so there are no new big features in EF Core 9 (EF9) Preview 3. However, this means we really need people like you to run your code on these new internals and report back what you find. We want to fix bugs in the new internals as soon as possible in order to have a strong GA release later in the year.

That being said, there are several smaller enhancements included in preview 3. For full details, see [What's new in EF Core 9](https://learn.microsoft.com/ef/core/what-is-new/ef-core-9.0/whatsnew). To discuss the EF9 release, go to [Try EF Core 9 now!](https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/issues/33030) on GitHub.

### Auto-compiled models

Auto-compiled models allow the [EF Core compiled model](https://learn.microsoft.com/ef/core/performance/advanced-performance-topics#compiled-models) to be automatically regenerated when the model project is built. This means you no longer need to remember to re-run the `dotnet ef dbcontext optimize` command after your EF model changes. See [Auto-compiled models](https://learn.microsoft.com/ef/core/what-is-new/ef-core-9.0/whatsnew#auto-compiled-models) in the _What's New_ docs for more information.

### Sugar for `HierarchyId` path generation

First class support for the SQL Server `HierarchyId` type was [added in EF8](https://learn.microsoft.com/ef/core/providers/sql-server/hierarchyid). In EF9, a sugar method has been added to make it easier to create new child nodes in the tree structure. See [Sugar for HierarchyId path generation](https://learn.microsoft.com/ef/core/what-is-new/ef-core-9.0/whatsnew#hierarchyid-path-generation) in the _What's New_ docs for more information.

### Everything else in preview 3

Preview 3 contains:

- [6 enhancements](https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/issues?q=is%3Aissue+milestone%3A9.0.0-preview3+is%3Aclosed+label%3Atype-enhancement+)
- [5 bug fixes](https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/issues?q=is%3Aissue+milestone%3A9.0.0-preview3+is%3Aclosed+label%3Atype-bug)

EF Core 9 preview 3 (and Microsoft.Data.Sqlite) contains work from the EF Team at Microsoft (@roji @AndriySvyryd @maumar @ajcvickers @cincuranet @SamMonoRT @luisquintanilla) as well as contributions from the EF Core community. The community PRs in EF9 Preview 3 are:

- @lauxjpn: [Cleanup duplicate tests (same test ID)](https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/pull/33185)
- @clement911: [Fixed typo in getting-and-building-the-code.md](https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/pull/33166)
- @Rezakazemi890: [32943-Sugar for HierarchyId path generation](https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/pull/33062)
- @lauxjpn: [Change Where_math(f)_log_new_base queries, so they fail if LOG() parameters are swapped](https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/pull/33342)
- @SteSinger: [33196 command timeout allow zero](https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/pull/33198)



## 9.0.0-preview.2.24128.4

The team has been working primarily on EF Core internals, so there are no new big features in EF Core 9 (EF9) Preview 2. However, this means we really need people like you to run your code on these new internals and report back what you find. We want to fix bugs in the new internals as soon as possible in order to have a strong GA release later in the year.

That being said, there are several smaller enhancements included in preview 2, many contributed by our community. For full details, see [What's new in EF Core 9](https://learn.microsoft.com/ef/core/what-is-new/ef-core-9.0/whatsnew). To discuss the EF9 release, go to [Try EF Core 9 now!](https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/issues/33030) on GitHub.

## Improved queries

- Inlined uncorrelated subqueries
  - In EF8, an IQueryable referenced in another query may be executed as a separate database roundtrip.
  - See [Inlined uncorrelated subqueries](https://learn.microsoft.com/ef/core/what-is-new/ef-core-9.0/whatsnew#inlinedsubs) for full details.
- New ToHashSetAsync methods
  - The `ToHashSet` methods have existed since .NET Core 2.0. In EF9, the equivalent async methods have been added.
  - See [New `ToHashSetAsync<T>` methods](https://learn.microsoft.com/ef/core/what-is-new/ef-core-9.0/whatsnew#hashsetasync) for full details.

## Improved model building

- Specify caching for sequences
  - EF9 allows setting the caching options for database sequences for any relational database provider that supports this.
  - See [Specify caching for sequences](https://learn.microsoft.com/ef/core/what-is-new/ef-core-9.0/whatsnew#sequence-caching) for full details.
- Specify fill-factor for keys and indexes
  - EF9 supports specification of the SQL Server fill-factor when using EF Core Migrations to create keys and indexes.
  - See [Specify fill-factor for keys and indexes](https://learn.microsoft.com/ef/core/what-is-new/ef-core-9.0/whatsnew#fill-factor) for full details.

## Improved tooling

- Fewer rebuilds when using `dotnet ef` tools
  - EF9 invalidates build caches less often, resulting in faster re-builds. 
  - See [Fewer rebuilds](https://learn.microsoft.com/ef/core/what-is-new/ef-core-9.0/whatsnew#fewer-rebuilds) for full details.

## Everything else in preview 2

Preview 2 contains:

- [8 enhancements](https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/issues?q=is%3Aissue+milestone%3A9.0.0-preview2+is%3Aclosed+label%3Atype-enhancement)
- [10 bug fixes](https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/issues?q=is%3Aissue+milestone%3A9.0.0-preview1+is%3Aclosed+label%3Atype-bug)

EF Core 9 preview 2 (and Microsoft.Data.Sqlite) contains work from the EF Team at Microsoft (@roji @AndriySvyryd @maumar @ajcvickers) as well as contributions from the EF Core community. The community PRs in EF9 Preview 1 are:
