Explanation:
Semi-structured data
Let's break down the options:
* Graph data
* Used in graph databases (e.g., Azure Cosmos DB Gremlin API, Neo4j).
* Represents nodes and edges with relationships.
* JSON is not graph data.
* Relational data
* Stored in relational databases with tables, rows, and columns.
* JSON does not follow a fixed schema with rows/columns.
* Semi-structured data
* Correct.
* JSON, XML, and Avro are common examples of semi-structured data.
* They don't require a rigid schema like relational data, but still have organizational elements (tags, key-value pairs).
* JSON is widely used in NoSQL/document databases like Azure Cosmos DB.
* Unstructured data
* Examples: images, videos, free text, audio.
* JSON does not fit here because it has a defined structure with keys and values.
