Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving an unstructured data record and parsing the unstructured data record to determine a characterization of the unstructured data record. The characterization includes determination of: a number of fields, a length for the fields, and an order of the fields as stored in the unstructured data record. The method also includes obtaining a first key pair that includes a primary key-name associated with a first key-value and hashing at least the first key-value to obtain a hash value. In addition, the method includes updating the unstructured data record to include the hash value as an indexing key thereby creating a modified data record. Also, the method includes storing the modified data record in a structured database. Moreover, the method includes updating an index of the structured database to include an entry for the modified data record, the entry including the hash value.
