Mechanisms for the systematic iterative analysis of unstructured data files are disclosed. A first handler is initiated to analyze a plurality of files. Information about each respective file of the plurality of files analyzed by the first handler is stored in a data structure. The information includes a file identifier that identifies the respective file, a handler identifier that identifies the first handler, and results or a reference to results of an analysis of the respective file by the first handler.

Systematic iterative analysis of unstructured data files

A mechanism for extracting system characteristics from an unstructured data format, a semi-structured data format, or a structured data format is disclosed. A processing device may receive information associated with a computing system in an unstructured data format. A content type of the information in the unstructured data format may be determined. A parser corresponding to the content type may be identified. A system characteristic from the information in the unstructured data format may be extracted using the parser. The extracted system characteristic may be stored in a common format.
