Unstructured Data - turning data swamps into insight
About this episode
In this episode we are looking at an area which impacts every business in the world. Unstructured data - that is, how we can start to squeeze insight from the piles of text, audio, video, and every other type of data that doesn’t fit into a neat table.
Carefully analysed, it can contain valuable insight, to be compared against other more traditional metrics such as sales figures, or economic results.
Joining us to discuss is Gokul Sathiacama, VP of data storage for AI at Hewlett Packard Enterprise.
This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what we can learn from it.
