 Star and Snowflake Schemas

Star Schema has a central fact table (containing quantitative data like sales, revenue, quantity) linked directly to dimension tables (descriptive data like customer, product, date, region). The structure looks like a star, with the fact table at the center and dimension tables radiating outward. It is denormalized, so dimension tables store all related attributes, reducing joins and improving query performance, but may cause data redundancy. It’s easy to understand and fast for OLAP queries.

Snowflake Schema is a more normalized form. Dimension tables are broken into sub-dimensions, reducing redundancy but increasing the number of joins. For example, a “Product” dimension might link to separate “Category” and “Supplier” tables. The structure resembles a snowflake due to branching relationships. It saves storage space and maintains data integrity but may slow queries due to multiple joins.

In summary:

Star Schema → Simpler, faster queries, uses more storage.

Snowflake Schema → More complex, slower queries, optimized storage.

Choosing between them depends on query performance needs vs. storage efficiency.
