Share point queries

It is a very common requirement in SharePoint Portal Solution to analyze a SharePoint solution in terms of storage capacity and statistics of sites, document libraries, area etc., to monitor the growth of the SharePoint solution and to take prompt action, if any thing goes wrong. Like, SharePoint should know what document library is most used in terms of versions, or the number of documents uploaded.

Microsoft SharePoint Portal Solution database is Microsoft�s proprietary database, and it cannot be modified because of any problems with future service pack releases, but sometimes you can write SELECT queries that can give full information that may be useful for the SharePoint Administrator. I was looking for some queries that would help me to analyze a SharePoint solution, but unfortunately, didn�t find any article that gives a list of useful queries, so I started to write my own SQL queries.

An Overview of the SharePoint Database Schema
In order to write queries against the SharePoint database schema, you should how Microsoft organizes information in SQL tables. Some common tables are:

Docs
Docversions
Sites
Webs
Information pertaining to document libraries, list, area, and sites can easily be fetched by joining these tables in the Portal_Site database. You can write a query against the PORTAL_Profile database to get useful information of user profiles etc.
