DbSchema connects to the lakehouse's SQL Analytics Endpoint — the T-SQL interface over your Delta Parquet tables — and turns the auto-registered tables and views into ER diagrams, visual queries, and shareable documentation.
Trusted by teams at
Every load into the lakehouse adds Delta tables, and the portal lists them — flat, one at a time. How orders relate to customers, and which views sit on which tables, is exactly what a list cannot show.
DbSchema introspects the SQL Analytics Endpoint and draws the structure: tables, views, columns, and relationships on a canvas data engineers can actually navigate.
A desktop view of the lakehouse the Fabric portal does not offer.
Connect once and DbSchema reads tables, views, and column types from the endpoint, laying the whole lakehouse out as a navigable diagram.
Pick lakehouse tables, drag joins and filters into place, and read the generated T-SQL before it runs — results land in the integrated data grid.
Draft intended table structures in the local model and share the design for discussion — implementation then happens through the Fabric portal, since the endpoint is read-oriented.
Generate interactive HTML5 documentation — zoomable diagrams, table definitions, column comments — and hand it over as a link. Governance reviewers and analysts study the data model with no Fabric workspace membership and nothing installed.

The SQL Analytics Endpoint speaks the SQL Server protocol, so choose SQL Server as the driver
type — DbSchema downloads the Microsoft JDBC driver automatically. The URL takes the form
jdbc:sqlserver://workspace-id.datawarehouse.pbidedicated.windows.net:1433;database=LakehouseName,
with your workspace ID as the hostname's first label, port 1433, and the
lakehouse name as the database. Append ;authentication=ActiveDirectoryPassword
and sign in with your Azure Active Directory username and password.
The endpoint is read-oriented: querying and introspection work, while creating or altering tables stays in the Fabric portal — DbSchema's synchronization does not deploy changes here. Driver details are on the Fabric Lakehouse JDBC driver page.
Download free — the Community Edition and a 15-day Architect trial ship together.
Teams working with Microsoft Fabric Lakehouse often use these engines too. Explore dedicated guides and JDBC setup for each.
