A star-schema data model is a choice that may be appropriate for when your principal concern is business reporting that's easy to understand and quick to query. It is best suited in cases where you have measurable events like purchases, visits to your website or financial transactions and want to analyze them by different descriptive categories. Separates the central facts from information like products, customers, dates etc. This can help simplify dashboards and analytical queries. If you have no idea how to design a warehouse that meets your needs, you might find Datalance helpful for obtaining hands-on data modeling and analytics advice.
