A joule is a unit of energy. As an example, it is the work done when applying a force of 1 newton for a distance of 1 meter (that's the basic definition of the joule). It is also the energy consumed by a 1-watt device in one second (this follows from the definition of the watt), from a 100-watt device in 1/100 of a second, etc.

What is the biggest unit than joule?

In SI, if a unit is too small or too big, either standard prefixes or scientific notation is used. Standard prefixes would be, for example, kilojoule (a thousand Joule), megajoule (a million Joule), gigagoule (a billion Joule) etc. But if you want to indicate the power output of the Sun for example, the numbers are so enormous that it doesn't make sense to use special prefixes; scientific notation is much clearer in this case (3.83 x 1026 Watt or Joules/second).
