Data provider class for sql database

Question

I need to write a data provider class to pull data from a sql database for use in a webpage that will display a bing map. Does anyone have a link they could provide with a tutorial on how to do this?

I have very little experience using a db to provide dynamic data for a web page so any help is appreciated. The Database is a sql Azure databse.

You need to research Data Access in .NET and ORM technologies for .NET. This question deals with similar concepts.

Note: There is nothing "special" you need to do to apply the standard .NET data technologies to Azure SQL.
