In this exercise, you can apply your knowledge of these data models to configure the Flat schema.
You will walk through the steps to create a Flat schema in Power BI using the example of an online bicycle store called Adventure Works.
You'll demonstrate how the store uses a schema to consolidate and analyze data, leading to better business decisions.
In the exercise, you must apply your knowledge of data models to build and configure a Flat schema in Power BI.
You'll walk through the steps to create a Flat schema in Power BI using the Adventure Works dataset.
The goal is to merge two different tables of datasets into a single consolidated dataset to build a Flat schema that can be utilized for data analysis and visualization.
