whether the schema contains in normalized form and data should be redundancy is required then we go for snow flake schema and the dimension table should split into another child table in this situation we go for snowflake schema rather than star schema.

Answer / bo_fan
Star schema : fact table with dimension tables around.
Snow flake schema: fact table with dimension tables around
and the dimension tables again have sub tables to it.
Example: When we have a scenario like student table and
subject details table (which is a sub table of student table)
There we can go for snow flake schema(going more details ie
normalization)
