A database consists of one fact table that is composed of multiple dimensions.

star schema is a type of database schema that consists of one fact table that is composed of multiple dimensions. A fact table contains quantitative measures or facts that are related to a specific event or transaction. A dimension table contains descriptive attributes or dimensions that provide context for the facts. A star schema is called so because it resembles a star, with the fact table at the center and the dimension tables radiating from it. A star schema is a type of dimensional schema, which is designed for data warehousing and analytical purposes. Other types of dimensional schemas include snowflake schema and galaxy schema. A snowflake schema is similar to a star schema, except that some or all of the dimension tables are normalized into multiple tables. A galaxy schema consists of multiple fact tables that share some common dimension tables. A transactional schema is a type of database schema that is designed for operational purposes, such as recording day-to-day transactions and activities. A transactional schema is usually normalized to reduce data redundancy and improve data integrity. A non-relational schema is a type of database schema that does not follow the relational model, which organizes data into tables with rows and columns. A non-relational schema can store data in various formats, such as documents, graphs, key-value pairs, etc.
