DE new on the job
I had the same problem when i started my job. I used SchemaSpy to generate an html with all of metadata and ERD diagrams as a reference point. Then i used dbt to connect to the database and used dbt to document the table and column that i have worked on. It takes time to document but it's worth it if you company don't have your database documented yet.

Spring, SchemaSpy DB docs, and GitHub Pages
SchemaSpy is a standalone application that connects to the database, scans its tables and schemas, and generated nicely composed HTML documentation. You can check out an example sample by this link but I'm showing you just one screenshot to clarify my point.

Looking for a database documenting tool to generate docs for analysts
I like the diagrams and reports SchemaSpy generates. If you are using a DBMS that allows setting comments to tables, views, columns (and other objects), those will be included and that makes those reports even more helpful

How do I create UML diagram?
I mean, I know about PlantUML where you can write code that will generate cool diagrams and it's feels like one of solutions\implementations but not the right one. What actual way people in huge companies create UML diagrams for their projects? I can't find any software or language syntax, even guides on Youtube about UML is just hours of talking about all sorts of UML diagrams without ever mentioning any software or syntax or actual way to create them.
