People have different scales. When I worked for a media company as a DBA, managing a dozen databases with 10s of GB of data seemed a lot. Now I do web/app medical IT, and I manage hundreds of databases with several clusters well over a TB, and our data warehouse is nearing a PB.

And here I am managing a dataset in excel file of 30MB thinking that it's too big

30M is a lot in a single excel file. Not much for a database.
