Explain hybrid slowly changing dimension


Hybrid SCDs are combination of both SCD 1 and SCD 2.

It may happen that in a table, some columns are important and we need to track changes for them i.e capture the historical data for them whereas in some columns even if the data changes, we don't care.

For such tables we implement Hybrid SCDs, where in some columns are Type 1 and some are Type 2.
