how can one connect two fact tables ? is it possible ? how?

Answer Posted / mallika

We can connect two fact tables by using constellation
schema or galaxy schema.
we have 3 types of schemas

star
snowflake
constellation or galaxy

in star schema we have data redundancy.we do not normalize
dimension tables.
in snowflake we normalize dimension tables to reduce space
boyh star aand snowflake we use only one fact and many
dimesion tables.in some situations we have to use more than
one fact table then we use constellation.but its vary
rarely used
