Unstructured data and structured data are analyzed based on the definition of the relevance parameters to determine relevant data in the unstructured data and the structured data. The relevant data being data that is determined to be relevant to the classification defined by the user. An index of the terms from the relevant data is determined. The index is useable by an analytics tool to provide results for queries of the unstructured data and structured data.
