Hi everyone,

I am confused in some dot net related terminologies.

In one interview, someone was asked me -
Which design pattern, architecture and framework you are using in your current project?

I was working on the MVC project. But don't know exactly which is the best term is used for MVC project.

Is 2-tier, 3-tier terms are referred as architecture?
Is Entity framework is a design pattern or architecture or framework?
Is MVC is a framework or a design pattern?

Can anyone please clear my confusion regarding these terminologies.

Thank You in advance.

What I have tried:

Pls clear my doubt on these terminologies.

Solution 1

MVC stands for Model-View-Controller. This is a pattern.
Entity Framework - the clue is in the name; it's a framework.
2 tier and 3 tier is architecture as it defines how you're going to structure your application.
