Which statement correctly describes the BITMAP AND operation?
A. It produces a bitmap, representing dimension table rows from all dimension tables that join with qualified fact table rows.
B. It produces a concentration of the bitmaps for all dimension tables.
C. It produces a bitmap, representing fact table rows that do not join with qualified dimension table rows from all dimension tables.
D. It produces a bitmap, representing fact table rows that join with qualified dimension table rows from all dimension tables.
Correct Answer: D
Explanation/Reference:
Example:
Additional set operations will be done for the customer dimension and the product dimension. At this point in the star query processing, there are threebitmaps. Each bitmap corresponds to a separate dimension table, and each bitmap represents the set of rows of the fact table that satisfy that individual dimension’s constraints.
These three bitmaps are combined into a single bitmap using the bitmap AND operation. This final bitmap represents the set of rows in the fact table that satisfy all of the constraints on the dimension table.
