A fact table, in the context of databases and data analysis, is a structure containing numerical measure values and keys used to identify and segment these measures in relation to dimension tables. Fact tables constitute the central element in Business Intelligence systems, storing data related to business operations, such as sales, revenue, or other performance indicators, along with dimensions such as time, location, product, or customer. They enable comprehensive analysis and report generation, allowing decision-makers to better understand data and make more informed business decisions.
