star schemas

Star Schema:
Reference Wikipedia:
In computing, the Star Schema (also called star-join schema) is the simplest style of data mart schema. The star schema consists of one or more fact tables referencing any number of dimension tables. The star schema is an important special case of the snowflake schema, and is more effective for handling simpler queries.[1]
The star schema gets its name from the physical model's[2] resemblance to a star with a fact table at its center and the dimension tables surrounding it representing the star's points.
