Data Science needs Data Scientists, Data Engineers and Data Architects

Abstract

There are a lot of software products and online services that import clean data and produce descent models in record time. However to get great models, obtaining clean and relevant data and deriving powerful "features" will occupy the majority of the time in data science. Data quality begins with good software engineering with descent QA, good data architecture and warehousing that requires minimal data engineering. How can we get great data from companies working in niche industries?
