5.what is slowly changing dimension ?

Answer Posted / mrs.narmatha

Slowly changing dimension applies to some cases where
attribute for a record varies over time.

For example a person called narmatha lived in one place
(india). So the original entry in the customer lookup table
like : customer id :100 name: narmatha country:India

At a later the person moved to UK

How should XYZ Inc. now modify its customer table to
reflect this change? This is the "Slowly Changing
Dimension" problem.
