You have read nothing if you do not know what ADO.Net is. Nor have you looked at any examples.

Actually I am a bit confused if it is related to database connectivity or something else.

What is confusing about:

ADO.NET is a set of computer software components that programmers can use to access data and data services based on disconnected DataSets and XML. It is a part of the base class library that is included with the Microsoft .NET Framework. It is commonly used by programmers to access and modify data stored in relational database systems, though it can also access data in non-relational sources. ADO.NET is sometimes considered an evolution of ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) technology, but was changed so extensively that it can be considered an entirely new product.
