○ It is a data warehouse design where all the dimensions tables in the warehouse are directly
connected to the
fact table.
○ The number of foreign keys in the fact table is equal to the number of dimensions. ○ It is a simple
design and hence faster query.
69. What is a Snowflake Schema?
○ It is a data warehouse design where at least one or more multiple dimensions are further
normalized. ○ Number of dimensions > number of fact table foreign keys
○ Normalization reduces redundancy so storage wise it is better but querying can be affected due to
the excessive joins that need to be performed.
70. What is granularity?
○ The lowest level of information that is stored in the fact table. ○ Usually determined by the time
dimension table.
○ The best granularity level would be per transaction but it would require a lot of memory.
