| A few things:1. Talk to business users or other developers/DBA's to get an understanding of the business logic that the database is supporting.2. Read up any documentation that previous developers and/or the vendor has provided3. Use SQL Server's database diagrams capability to visualize the tables and relationships - for me, this is one of the best tools for getting a sense of the lay of the land.4. Look at the stored procedures, views, functions to see what they do , what the signatures are, which business clients make use of them, how they affect the tables and databases etc.5. Experiment with the database in a development environment.In other words, a lot work :) |
