During the development cycle of data model, several changes/updates may take place over time depending upon the needs and requirement of that project. As and when required, different data model versions will be created with little or more changes between them. At one point of time, one may require to know the exact differences between…
Relational | Dimensional Data Modeling: Relational Data Modeling is used in OLTP systems which are transaction oriented and Dimensional Data Modeling is used in OLAP systems which are analytically based. In a data warehouse environment, staging area is designed on OLTP concepts, since data has to be normalized, cleansed and profiled before loaded into a…

Before proceeding further, please visit our topics listed under the section “Database and Data Modeling” to get a fair knowledge about the database. The following table briefs about the objects used in constructing the data model…
Analysis of Data and creating Tables & Relationships: Usually in a data model, Tables (Entities) looks like rectangular or square type boxes, which contains columns(attributes) and these tables are connected by lines (relationships). Identifying relationship and Non-Identifying relationship are two types of relationships. Based on cardinality, relationship are broadly classified into one to one relationship, one…

SuperType and SubType in Data Modeling: At times, few entities in a data model may share some common properties (attributes) within themselves apart from having one or more distinct attributes. Based on the attributes, these entities are categorized as Supertype and Subtype entities. Supertype is an entity type that has got relationship (parent to child…
Dimensional Data Modeling comprises of one or more dimension tables and fact tables. Good examples of dimensions are location, product, time, promotion, organization etc. Dimension tables store records related to that particular dimension and no facts (measures) are stored in these tables. For example, Product dimension table will store information about products (Product Category, Product…
