The idea is always, How I can reduce the number of Dimension ?
If you reduce Dim, the time / resources to build the cube and final size of
it decrease --> Its good
An example can be DIM_Persons: Id_Person , Name, Surname, Address, .....
Id_Person can be HostColumn
and other columns can be calculated from ID --> are Extended Column
