Posted on: Monday, 9 August 2004, 06:00 CDT
BEAVERTON, Ore., Aug. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- UXComm(TM), a leader in management software solutions for modular, utility compute environments, today announced it has expanded its executive management team with the addition of Brad Stone as vice president of products. Stone, a 16-year network and service management software industry veteran, brings a wealth of experience and vision in creating solutions that address the ever-changing management needs of both component system manufacturers and businesses.
"Leadership and growth in emerging markets means mapping great people with breakthrough technology and aiming them at new and important market needs," said Mark Sigal, president and chief executive officer of UXComm. "Coupled with UXComm's innovative technology, Brad dramatically adds to the people part of this equation, bringing with him focused service-based systems management experience, energy and enthusiasm that spans from needs identification to the delivery of market-ready products. Taken together, Brad brings important assets that we are proud to be associated with."
Stone, who will be based in UXComm's offices in San Mateo, Calif., joins UXComm from Symbol Technologies where he held executive positions focused on developing management solutions and the introduction of new technologies to the market. Prior to Symbol Technologies, Stone was founder and president of Aspirin Software, a private technology business focused on developing and marketing service-level based management and security solutions for Global 2000 companies.
Before Aspirin Software, Stone was chief technology officer (CTO) of Resonate, a leader in management software solutions, which had a successful IPO in 2000. Finally, prior to Resonate, Stone held a variety of executive and technology roles at HP, where he was responsible for the creation, development and delivery of a number of HP management solutions. While at HP, Stone was instrumental in identifying early market trends and functional requirements related to managing the virtualization of technology resources in modular, service-driven utility compute environments.
"This is an exciting opportunity," said Stone. "Despite all of the management solutions on the market, legacy vendors are facing a real crossroads with respect to new service-oriented, modular compute environments. Modular, utility compute environments present a whole new set of domain-specific problems that must be managed from the 'bottom-up' to realize the ROI and lifecycle benefits this wave of computing promises to deliver. This is the promise of UXComm. It has compelling technology to take management to the next level, and I'm looking forward to helping extend its leadership in this dynamic market."
Stone holds a bachelor's degree in Computer Science from the University of Michigan and a master's degree in Computer Science/Computer Systems and Artificial Intelligence from Stanford University. Stone is a popular industry speaker and has authored multiple publications, including "Unix Fault Management" Prentice-Hall 1999, "Mobile Environments Add New Wrinkles to Service Level Management" and "Understanding Active Service Level Management."
