There is no Dimension called Rapidly changing dimension in DWH. But if you consider overall ODS tables; a rapidly changing dimension is one that holds the transactional data rather than staging data.

There is a Dimension called Monster Dimension.

I hope if you can treat this as a rapidly changing dimension.

RE: what is rapidly changing dimension?
A rapidly changing dimension is a result of poor decisions during the requirements analysis and data modeling stages of the Data Warehousing project. If the data in the dimension table is changing a lot it is a hint that the design should be revisited.
