πŸš€Day 45 of Data analytics journey!

Today I explored and practiced the following in Power BI & Data Modeling:

  • πŸ”§ Fixed Power BI Map Visual Issue
    (Solution: Chrome β†’ Power BI Admin Portal β†’ Tenant Settings β†’ Integration Settings β†’ Enable)

  • πŸ“Š Dimension Modeling

    • Fact Table β†’ Stores measurable business data (sales, revenue, etc.)
    • Dimension Table β†’ Stores descriptive attributes (customer, product, time, etc.)
    • Attributes β†’ Properties that describe dimensions (customer name, product category, etc.)
  • 🌟 Schema Types

    • Star Schema β†’ Fact table connected directly to dimensions (simple & fast).
    • Snowflake Schema β†’ Dimensions further normalized into sub-dimensions (complex but reduces redundancy).
  • πŸ—‚ Conceptual Model

    β†’ High-level design that shows entities, relationships, and flow of business data.

  • 🌍 Geo Data

    β†’ Data that contains location info (like country, state, city) used for map visuals.

  • βž• Create New Table

    β†’ Done using Modeling > New Table in Power BI (with DAX formula).

  • ⚑ X Language (DAX)

    β†’ Data Analysis Expressions, a formula language in Power BI for creating measures, calculated columns, and tables.
