Answer / kshatri
Conformed Dimensions (CD): These dimensions are something
that is built once in your model and can be reused multiple
times with different fact tables.
For example, consider a model containing multiple fact
tables, representing different data marts. Now look for a
dimension that is common to these facts tables. In this
example, let us consider that the product dimension is
common and hence can be reused by creating short cuts and
joining the different fact tables. Some of the examples are
time dimension, customer dimensions, product dimension.
