How we will see which trap(Chasm trap or Fantrap) was used
in the Universe ?

Answer Posted / aanonymous

In universe structure panel,
Organize the dimension tables and fact tables after making the
possible joins. Look at the
joins and cordialities from Dimension tables to Fact table.

If majority of the joins (one-to-many)towards fact from
dimension table consider as Chasm trap.
If majority of the joins away from the Fact table and
towards dimension table(s) consider as Fan trap

If it is Fan trap, Alias is the recommended method to
resolve the loop, otherwise use the context.
We can use either of that or both of them.
