What Snow Flake Schema

Question:What Snow Flake Schema?

Answer: <br><b>Answered by Girinath.S.V.S on 2005-03-17 06:40:48:</b> Snowflake schemas normalize dimensions to eliminate redundancy. That is, the dimension data has been grouped into multiple tables instead of one large table. For example, a product dimension table in a star schema might be normalized into a products table, a product_category table, and a product_manufacturer table in a snowflake schema. While this saves space, it increases the number of dimension tables and requires more foreign key joins. The result is more complex queries and reduced query performance
