I think both are held together.
If you have a lot of data, but your underlying system is simple, you don't need a lot of people to analyse it. Your demand for new people crunching that data will come as the complexity of your software grows.
Think of it this way: having 10 endpoints and 10TB of plain-text data vs 1000 endpoints and 1TB of plain-text data. The later will surely require more time to be analysed, even though the amount of data is smaller.

Data on the other hand is still growing, and there is enough already that has not been analyzed. Traditional software engineering will still be important, but no longer glamorous. The future belongs to the data analysts.
