Data Reverse Engineering

The Challenge

Enterprises often rely on complex, legacy SQL databases with thousands of objects and undocumented dependencies. Understanding these systems for onboarding, migration, compliance, or modernization is a slow, manual process that drains time and resources. Lack of proper documentation makes it harder for new engineers, consultants, or compliance teams to work effectively.

Our Solution

The Data Reverse Engineering POC connects directly to SQL databases, extracts objects and metadata, and uses AI to generate human-readable descriptions, dependency mappings, and complexity analysis. It presents insights in an interactive web interface, allows exporting documentation in Markdown, and even generates migration guidelines making databases transparent and easier to manage.

Key Outcomes

• Automated discovery of all SQL Server objects (tables, views, procedures, triggers, functions, etc.)

• AI-generated descriptions and complexity analysis for each object

• Documentation of object dependencies with AI explanations

• Metadata extraction with last modified timestamps and sample data

• Interactive, filterable, and visually rich documentation UI

• One-click export of Markdown-based database documentation

• AI-generated migration guidelines for modernization

Benefits for Enterprises

• Instantly generate clear documentation for complex databases

• Save hours of manual mapping and dependency analysis

• Accelerate onboarding of new engineers and analysts

• Reduce risks in migration and modernization projects

• Improve compliance, governance, and audit readiness

• Enable smooth knowledge transfer during staff transitions
