Unstructured Archive Ingest
Drop zip archives of PDFs, images, and documents into bronze storage for downstream structuring and ML pipelines.
Drop zip archives of PDFs, images, and documents into bronze storage for downstream structuring and ML pipelines.
Business problem
Legal, insurance, and field operations teams accumulate years of documents, images, and scans in shared drives. Moving that data into analytics or ML pipelines usually requires bespoke preprocessing jobs.
Heimdall solution
Lake unstructured ingest accepts zip archives into bronze storage with catalog metadata. Files stay organized by project or batch, ready for Lab exploration or ML feature extraction on gold publish.
Business impact
Archive batches become searchable catalog entries instead of orphaned folders. Downstream teams know exactly which bronze batch fed a model or report.
How it works
Upload zip archives
Drop multi-file archives into Lake bronze. Heimdall catalogs contents and preserves batch metadata for traceability.
Explore in Lab
Profile file counts, types, and sample metadata with Python before committing to a curation strategy.
Feed ML pipelines
Publish gold structured outputs and train classification or extraction models in Heimdall ML.
