Structured vs Unstructured Data
Structured data is defined and searchable. This includes data like dates, phone numbers, and product SKUs, names, addresses, credit card numbers, telephone numbers, star ratings from customers, bank information, and other data that can be easily searched using SQL. (Structured Query Language)
Unstructured data is everything else, Approximately 80-90% of data is unstructured. which is more difficult to categorize or search, like photos, videos, podcasts, social media posts, and emails.
