Data modeling, semantic modeling, star schema and how to make one in Power BI - all explained neatly and clearly in this video.
In this video learn about data modeling in Power BI, using a fictional chocolate company as an example. It explains the importance of setting up a star schema, which involves organizing data into fact and dimension tables. I also cover the process of importing data into Power BI, establishing relationships between tables, and creating visualizations to analyze the data.
💡 What you will learn:
==================
◉ What is Data Modelling:
◉ Data modelling with a real-world example
◉ Fact vs. Dimension table
◉ How to set up relationships in Power BI?
◉ Types of relationships
◉ What does the "arrow" mean in the semantic model? (filter propagation)
◉ Importance of "correct" data modelling
