A big majority of the data stored by most organizations is either unstructured, like information on paper, or semi-structured, as in e-mails. But more and more companies want to be able to analyze those disorderly data sets.

From Google, Microsoft and Yahoo, to SAS, SPSS and IBM, a whole gang of vendors is rushing to add structure to the nebulous information sources that spill across businesses large and small.
