Abstract -
With the emergence of new channels and
technologies such as social networking, mobile
computing, and online advertising, the data
generated no longer have a standard format or
structure like the conventional ones and cannot be
processed using relational models. They come in the
form of text, XML, emails, images, weblogs, videos,
and so on resulting in a surge of new data types. This
formless data is either semi-structured or
unstructured data and makes searching and analysis
complex. This paper gave an overview of this
unstructured data that makes the backbone of
predictive analysis. It outlined the sources and
element of unstructured data and how organization
benefits from gathering, analyzing and using
unstructured data. The result concluded that
organizations no longer neglect unstructured data
nowadays; rather they are devising means of
analyzing it to extract information.
