Star Schema is better because of

  1. Has redundant data and hence less easy to maintain/change
  2. Less complex queries and easy to understand
  3. Less no. of foreign keys and hence lesser query execution time
  4. Good for datamarts with simple relationships (1:1 or 1:many)
  5. Fewer Joins
  6. Contains only single dimension table for each dimension
