Jim Jagielski Biography :

Web/open source visionary and advocate Jim Jagielski currently serves as Chief Technology Officer (CTO) for Covalent Technologies, the leading provider of products and services for the Apache Web Server, Tomcat, Axis and Geronimo.

Early in his career, Jagielski went to work for NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center as an engineer. His main tasks were in modeling, simulation and analysis of spacecraft power systems. At GSFC, he was an early convert to the Macintosh (his PC of choice even today). When Apple released their first version of UNIX, called A/UX, Jagielski quickly became a known expert in that OS. He was the editor of the FAQ for A/UX, and Apple would even have people contact Jim if they had A/UX questions. It was his association with A/UX that started his guru reputation on the 'Net.

Since then, Jagielski has made developer and porting contributions to numerous Open Source projects, including Perl, sendmail, BIND/named, PHP, xntpd, GNU, cgiwrap and FreeBSD. He's also written a lot of independent code and is best known as a long-time (almost "charter") core developer of several Apache projects, including the Apache Web Server (after having helped develop the later versions of NCSA's httpd server), Apache APR and Apache Tomcat. Jagielski also serves on the Board of Directors of the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) and holds the positions of Executive V.P. and Secretary. A frequent speaker, he also serves on the Advisory Board of the Open Source Software Initiative (OSSI).

In 1994, Jagielski started jaguNET Access Services, LLC, a very successful and acknowledged ISP and Web Hosting company based in Maryland. He also served as partner for OneStopSite, LLC, a Web Technologies firm and was CTO for Zend Technologies, USA, the PHP company.

Jagielski was an editor on Slashdot, heading the Apache and Web section. He also had a monthly column in Web Techniques and New Techniques, called At Your Server, all about server-base infrastructure.

Jagielski graduated from Johns Hopkins University in 1983 with a BES in Electrical Engineering/Computer Science. While at Hopkins, he was one of the student SysAdmins for the Engineering school's PDP-11 and VAX computer, where he got his first taste of C and UNIX and networks. He has since obtained his Masters and Ph.D. in Computer Science as well.
