I don't think it's about software per se, but more about the idea of Big Data. We have seen many ideas that have come and go most of the times a good idea but a good idea is not something you should use for everything.

From the top of my head

Ajax (very handy but lot of times misused and misunderstood or just DHTML)

No SQL (can be handy, but for some people it is like a religion)

XML (why use CSV when you are able to use XML)

Cloud (Oh by cloud you mean the internet?)

and many more :)

Java around 1998. All bugs a thing of the past! Write once run anywhere! Applets taking over the world!
