    A general F# SQL database erasing type provider, supporting LINQ queries, schema exploration, individuals, CRUD operations and much more besides.

    Like this?

  • LINQ to DB

    Linq to database provider.

    As others have mentioned, I think linq2db comes closest to this.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • Marten

    .NET Transactional Document DB and Event Store on PostgreSQL

    Regarding the impedance mismatch, maybe take a look at Marten. It currently only supports PostgreSQL but it does open up the doors to using document and relational stores within the same database, should you have the need.
