Abstract
Based on an explorative analysis of the definitions of a data scientist and a community of data scientists as well, this paper points out that with the development of data science and data scientists, the promotion by CODATA and interested partners, the support and efforts of more and more countries and regions, and the drive of social need, building a community of data scientists is full of potentialities and hopes though faced with obstacles and challenges.
