Star schema... what is this, the year of our lord 1995?
- ngould 10y agoThe star schema is still very useful, even though it wasn't invented in the last six months.
- SmellTheGlove 10y agoStar schema still has its (very prominent) place with many applications. If my information has some natural structure, I'm not going to go out of my way to un-structure it, and star is sometimes the data structure that best suits the data itself.
- partycoder 10y agoYes sure, but it's really hard to scale. Scale on horizontally, not vertically. Vertical scalability is not true scalability.
