1(a) Foe a Super market chain, consider the following dimensions namely product, store, time and promotion. The schema contains a central fact table for sales.
i. Design star schema for the above application.
ii. Calculate the maximum number of base fact table records for warehouse with the following values given below:
  • time period-5 years
  • Store-300 stores reporting daily sales
  • Product-40,000 products in each store (about 4000 sell in each store daily)
  • 10 M
    1(b) Discuss:
    i. The steps in KDD process
    ii. The architecture of a typical DM system
