ERD generator — Vertica Forum

ERD generator

Navin_CNavin_C Vertica Customer
Hello All,

I am trying to do some reverse engineering on Vertica.
I need the ERD diagram from the current Vertica Database.

I have tried SQL power Architect and DBdesigner Fork tool, but both does not relate tables with Primary and Foreign Keys.

I cannot see any links between primary keys and foreign keys in ERD diagram.
Is it Vertica's Default behaviour or any specific tool to be used for seeing this

Thanks

  • I doubt the Vertica system tables have PK and FK keys defined. So, at best, you'd end up with a diagram of 100+ unconnected tables.


    To further complicate matters, not all joins keys are named the same.  So, it won't be obviously intuitive how to do all the joins.

    Hi Curtis,

    Thanks for the reply.

    I figured out that DBeaver easily generated an ERD with the relationships in the Tables based on PK-FK constraints.
