what is degenerated dimension table with scenario
Answer Posted / sruthi
Dimension which has only a single attribute. This dimension is typically represented as a single field in a fact table.The data items thar are not facts and data items that do not fit into the existing dimensions are termed as Degenerate Dimensions.
In below Fact Table with customer_id, product_id, bill_no, date in key section and price, quantity in measure section. In this fact table, bill_no from key section is a single value, it has no associated dimension table. Instead of creating a separate dimension table for that single value, we can include it in fact table to improve performance. So here the column, bill_no is a degenerate dimension or line item dimension
