  • Article

It is important for developers and DBAs to be able to determine the interdependencies of any database object. Perhaps you need to work out what process is accessing that view you want to alter, or maybe find out whether that table-type you wish to change is being used. What are all these dependencies? How do you work out which are relevant? Phil Factor explains.

Identifying Object Dependencies in SQL Server

I have DDL trigger code that I'm working on in SQL Server 2022, but I am concerned that we might end up with multiple triggers firing and the response to the user is delayed. If I want to check how many triggers have fired, or are nested, how can I do this in my code?
