star schemas are an Oracle 8 feature, they are relevant in data
warehousing where you have one massive table with loads of rows and a
host of very small tables with reference data (hence the name Star
schemas. Apparently there is a parameter in the ini file for the
database that you need set in order to use it. And that's about all I
know. Hope it is of some help.
