Are there any tools out there to use for exploratory analysis on semi structured data sources...

$begingroup$


I.e. server log files and other machine generated data.



As far as I know most visualization tools (Power BI, Tableau, Excel) generally expect tabular data.



Are there similar tools for exploratory analysis of semi-structured data? For example data where there's a time stamp and several fields with different codes. Even tools that are recommended for use with time series would be beneficial here. The goal is to explore different trends over time but to easily be able to slice and compare to extract meaningful information.



If there are no tools are there any recommendations on doing exploratory analysis on semi-structured data?
