Hello DB experts,

I'm currently designing a database schema and am a bit confused about when to normalize and when to denormalize my data. I understand the basic principles of normalization, but I've read that denormalization can improve performance in certain scenarios.

Could someone explain the pros and cons of normalization and denormalization? How do you decide which approach to take for different use cases?

Thanks in advance for your advice!
