The buzzword had many definitions, and with time, people realize that what they are dealing with is not BIG data, but just data. People tried to define big data in terms of the size of the data set. The best definition of big data I heard is "a data storage and/or processing system that cannot handle the amount of data in one physical machine and needs distributed storage and/or processing". That's a lot of data. Most people and companies are not dealing with big data. Kind of like everything being "blockchain" at one point. Eventually people realized that the word has a specific meaning that does not apply to many things..
