Dimensional modeling is one of many data modeling techniques that are used by data practitioners to organize and present data for analytics. Other data modeling techniques include Data Vault (DV), Third Normal Form (3NF), and One Big Table (OBT) to name a few. Data modeling techniques on a normalization vs denormalization scale While the relevancy of dimensional modeling has been debated by data practitioners , it is still one of the most widely adopted data modeling technique for analytics.
