Why Star Schema is de-normalized? Please explain in detail
probably with some examples.

Answer Posted / kumar

Star Schema is centally Located by Fact Table surrounded by
Dimension Tables, hence it resembles Star so we call it
as "Star Schema"

Here We use the De-Normalized tables, If we use Normalizewd
tables that prefer the Snow-Flake Schema.

In Star Schema we have the less no. of tables, so we have
the duplicate records with non key attributes.
