STAC Fellows

STAC Fellows are individuals from user firms who have made extraordinary contributions to the STAC community. Their contributions differ. Some of them have devoted considerable time and effort to the creation of research agendas and STAC Benchmark specifications. Some of them have provided key advice, connections, and energy that have grown the STAC community. Their backgrounds differ as well. Some of them are senior executives. Some of them are experts in particular workloads or particular technologies. But all STAC Fellows have one thing in common: a belief in the value of unbiased, empirical research based on community-sourced standards. (STAC Fellows are not STAC employees. STAC Fellows have many opinions and may use STAC forums to express them, but their views are their own. STAC began recognizing STAC Fellows in 2014. Below is the current list, with links to their profiles on LinkedIn.
