13. One or more non-transitory storage media embodying logic that is operable when executed by one or more processors to: query the search index and the ontology in parallel, wherein the search index is generated based at least in part upon an unstructured data element by streaming and normalizing received data terms from a data source and the ontology is generated based at least in part upon an structured data element at least one data mitigation and classification rule; receive a first search request relating to information stored in the ontology, wherein the ontology comprises at least one instance and the instance has a name; parse the first search request to determine if the first search request is an instance based search that comprises all or part of a name of at least a first instance in the ontology; perform a first query of the search index associated with the ontology in response to determining that the first search request is an instance based search; receive a second search request relating to information stored in an ontology; parse the second search request to determine if the second search request is an instance based search that comprises all or part of a name of at least a second instance in the ontology; and perform a second query of at least the ontology in response to determining that the second search request is not an instance based search; receive a third search request relating to information not stored in the ontology; parse the third search request to determine that the third search request is an instance based search that comprises all or part of a name of at least a third instance in the ontology; perform a third query of the search index and retrieve metadata associated with the third instance from the search index, wherein the metadata comprises information about a data source associated with the third instance; and retrieve information from the data source that are not stored in the ontology.

The storage media of claim 13 , wherein the logic is further operable when executed to: receive a plurality of terms, the terms having been generated by processing unstructured data from a data source; and generate the search index at least in part by indexing the plurality of terms.
