It is really depended on your data itself, you can say Snowflake is the extension of the star schema. Snowflake schema is easy to maintain, lessen the redundancy hence consumes less space but complex to design. Whereas star schema is simple to understand and design, uses less number of joins and simple queries but have some issues such as data redundancy and integrity.
