Answer Posted / pratap gangula
STAR Schema is a design that has a collection of one fact table and many dimension tables. Fact tables have the foreign keys to all the dimension tables and also keeps the additive measures for analysis. Dimension tables have the information needed to describe the measures in the fact. Basically dimensions are entities with all the attributes in a denormalized form.
