Session
From Unstructured Data into Structured: Azure AI Content Understanding in Practice
Most of your valuable info isn’t in tables—it’s stuck in PDFs, images, audio, and video. In this session, we’ll use Azure AI Content Understanding to turn that unstructured content into clean, structured data your apps can actually use. We’ll walk through the core Analyzer flow, then show real examples: extract fields from invoices, summarize calls, and segment videos into searchable scenes. We’ll also compare when to choose Content Understanding vs Document Intelligence vs a DIY Azure OpenAI pipeline. We’ll finish with a small, production-minded template you can use. By the end, you’ll know how to unlock hidden data across formats and wire it into search, analytics, and automation.
What you’ll learn
How to extract entities/summaries from documents, audio, and video
Decision guide: Content Understanding vs Document Intelligence vs DIY
Production basics: schemas, PII redaction, confidence gates, logging
