In defining big data, itâs also important to understand the mix of unstructured and multi-structured data that comprises the volume of information. Unstructured data comes from information that is not organized or easily interpreted by traditional databases or data models, and typically, itâs text-heavy.
Data from quantitative researchâsuch as market size, demographics, and user preferencesâprovides important information for business decisions. Qualitative research provides valuable data for use in the design of a productâincluding data about user needs, behavior patterns, and use cases.
