What is the Conformed dimension?

Conformed dimensions are those that have the same meaning and content when referred to from different fact tables. In other words, this means that a dimension can be used to analyze data from multiple perspectives at the same time, with no need to worry about data consistency as a consequence.

In data warehousing and business intelligence, conformed dimensions play an important role. For example, if you have a date dimension table that is used by sales, purchase, finance, employee, inventory, and budget fact tables, you want to make sure that the date dimension has the same structure, attributes, definitions, and domain values for each fact table. Using the same date dimension, you will be able to analyze and compare the data from different fact tables in an easy way.

Examples of Conformed dimensions:

Date and Time.
