Barb, Big Data is generally defined as data sets so large and complex that it becomes difficult or impossible to process them using traditional database management applications.
So, the reason why it is so buzzed about these days, is that it is hard to do. You need specialized software and the skills to use it to accomplish the things you are talking about when Big Data is involved.
