Writing Provider Independent Code in ADO.NET 

The System.Data.Common namespace provides generic classes for working with data that let you write code that can work across different data providers, as long as the data is isomorphic. However, this does not take into account differences between providers and database servers, which need to be handled by the developer on a case-by-case basis.
