25、ys the ability to use bitmap indexes and increases the user-perceived complexity of the design. Remember that in the presentation system in the data warehouse, you don't have to worry about enforcing many-to-one data rules in the physical table design by demanding snowflaked dimensions....
All the data is fully known when inserted, and it never changes (except to correct errors).Typically, transaction fact tables store facts at the lowest possible level of granularity, and they contain measures that are additive across all dimensions. A sales fact table that stores every sales ...

Dimensions are just like reference tables that are referenced in a Fact table along with the calculated or computed facts it contains. For example, you may find EmployeeKey (data warehouse generated id) from Employee dimension, DepartmentKey from Department dimension being passed to the FactSalary ...
Fact / dimensions I'd like to foreign key to the three 'actions' above that already have corresponding dimensions within our warehouse: dim_orders dim_returns dim_internal_transfers My current plan is to create a foreign key column for each of these, understanding that only ...
Role playing dimensions are used to have a single dimension serve multiple roles when a Fact table(s) are referencing it A Fact table can reference the dimensions in one instance and have a specific meaning, and then reference the same table again but this time have new meaning or data to...

“AND” logic). Now, it’s recommended to have each shared dimension as its own separate table, which allows you to consider each relationship in turn, and use any combination of shared dimensions that you like (think of this as more contextual “OR” logic). Your data source becomes ...
updating of accumulating snapshot fact rows is unique among the three types of fact tables. In addition to the date foreign keys associated with each critical process step, accumulating snapshot fact tables contain foreign keys for other dimensions and optionally conta...
Product, Store, and Customer, are independent of Time. But you have to account for the slow, episodic change of these dimensions in the way you handle them. In effect, as keepers of the data warehouse, we have taken a pledge to faithfully represent these changes. This predicament ...
