What are the different types of schemas?

Answer Posted / thirumalai

There are 3 types of Schemas :
1. Star Schema -The star schema architecture is the
simplest data warehouse schema. It is called a star schema
because the diagram resembles a star, with points radiating
from a center. The center of the star consists of fact
table and the points of the star are the dimension tables.
Usually the fact tables in a star schema are in third
normal form(3NF) whereas dimensional tables are de-
normalized. Despite the fact that the star schema is the
simplest architecture

2. Snow Flake Schema - The snowflake schema architecture is
a more complex variation of the star schema used in a data
warehouse, because the tables which describe the dimensions
are normalized

3. Fact Constallation Schema : For each star schema it is
possible to construct fact constellation schema(for example
by splitting the original star schema into more star
schemes each of them describes facts on another level of
dimension hierarchies). The fact constellation architecture
contains multiple fact tables that share many dimension
tables.
