This association is absolutely accurate as Kimball developed the concept of a star schema i.e. a relational database structure the central part of which is the socalled fact table with surrounding dimension tables. The fact table contains measures and foreign keys of dimensions i.e. references to dimensions. The measure characterizes the size of the phenomenon e.g. sales value in the event of a product being sold. Dimensions however describe a fact that actually occurred providing additional information about it e.g. information about the product sold and the customer who made the purchase. Each warehouse must include a time dimension that allows for a clear determination of the date and time of a given event.

Kimball assumes that a data warehouse is actually a set of coherent data marts based on shared dimensions. Reports are created directly on the basis of data marts or through an additional layer of OLAP cubes. Data warehouse architecture diagram according to Kimball Fig.
Data warehouse architecture diagram according to Kimball Dimensions in Kimball's understanding should be agreed i.e. retain the same meaning in relation to many facts. The design stage of this approach assumes the development of a matrix of business processes and dimensions bus matrix. Thanks to this approach specific fact tables are connected to the bus representing the available dimensions of the organization in the data warehouse.
