Slowly changing dimensions are dimension tables that have
slowly increasing dimension data, as well as updates to
existing dimensions.
Ex : if a person Mr. x is living in the city C1 has a
transaction in a bank and his details is maintained and
after some years he moves to city C4, that means he has his
new details develped but the bank need to maintain the
details i.e both c1 and c2 details ,the history has to be
maintained fully or sometimes partially , so in this cases
the necessity of SCD is required
When updating existing dimensions, you decide whether to
keep all historical dimension data, no historical data, or
just the current and previous versions of dimension data.
