DNN Database Model Diagram & ChangesChris Chodnicki | Nov 11 2011 | 11 Comments

Here at R2i we work with DotNetNuke (DNN) Community and Professional Edition CMS versions building custom modules, integrating outside systems & data sources and performing regular upgrades for many clients' sites. We find that every day we are referencing the data model. To help our software engineers we have created the ERD data model and meta data dictionary documents for reference.

These diagrams and meta dictionary will help other organizations understand the DNN architecture and save development time. Given that DNN Community Edition (CE) has several versions we reverse engineered the latest 4.9x and latest 6.1 versions to create the ERD and meta data dictionary. In addition there is additional reference defining the database differences between the versions.
