Surrogate key is a unique identification key, it is like an artificial or alternative key to production key, bz the production key may be alphanumeric or composite key but the surrogate key is always single numeric key. Assume the production key is an alphanumeric field if you create an index for this fields it will occupy more space, so it is not advisable to join/index, bz generally all the datawarehousing fact table are having historical data. These factable are linked with so many dimension table. if it's a numerical fields the performance is high

Just to add on to this point, we can also have date stamp as in the format (yyyymmdd) which is actually an 4 Byte unsigned integer to keep track of the historical data. This date stamp column can also be considered as an surrogate key.
