Answer / sandeep.pamarati

A confirmed Dimension, by definition, means a single
dimension table is actually connected to more than one fact
table in your dimensional model.
So, if a dimension table is shared across two fact tables,
for example, then that dimension is called as Conformed
Dimension.

PS: It is NOT Confirmed Dimension but it is Conformed Dimension.
