asp.net mvc从.mdf文件加载数据库

Question

I'm building an Web App using MVC, using Entity Framework. Usually, the entity framework takes data from the database from the MSSQL server installed on machine.

I want to make at login a check, for example, if the connection at database is ok, if not, to take a .mdf file (stored on a cloud server) and use the data from that db.

This will be the 'emergency' database, backup etc.

Is this possible?

Answer 1

You can use DbContext constructor that takes connection string to the database. That's how you can handle to which DB you will connect.
