Big Data
The dictonary meaning is: extremely large data sets that may be analysed computationally to reveal patterns, trends, and associations, especially relating to human behaviour and interactions.
Big data means a huge volume data. If you refer huge volume of data, that means the data which can not be stored and can not be processed in given time by using traditional approach.
How much huge?
Generally, when we say huge data, we think that its in GBs/TBs/PBs/EB(exabytes), but its not define big data completely.
Even, a small of data can be refer by big data with respect to application.
example: Emails: we can not send 100 MB file as an email. it means 100MB is big or huge data with respect of email application.
