Unstructured Data Is No Longer a Problem

Structured data is that which can be organized neatly within the columns of a database. Unstructured data is more difficult to sort and therefore extract value from, but it will still be done. Examples of unstructured data would include scraping emails, social media posts and word processing documents. A variety of things can also be gleaned from audio, video and photo files as well as from web pages. Pretty much if it exists on the internet or even just as a file somewhere, there is data to be collected, sorted and used.
