Im sharing my learning from the Data Engineering Bootcamp, where we are learning about Data Engeering. Today we are learning about Dimensional modelling - Cumulative Table.
I would like to extend my gratitude to Zach Wilson, the founder of DataExpert.io, for his invaluable guidance and the comprehensive Data Engineering Bootcamp.
Connect with Zach Wilson on LinkedIn.
Thank you, Zach, for this amazing intense bootcamp on Data engineering!
Day-1: Dimensional Modelling (Theory)
What is a Dimension?
Dimension are attributes
of an entity ( example: user's name, age etc)
- Dimensions may be
IDENTIFY
an entity, which would be a unique identifier for the entity (example: user_id, device_id etc)
- Dimensions may be
DESCRIPTIVE
which would be the attributes of the entity (example: user's name,age etc) but wont be unique.
