AlfredChuang, who founded BEA Systems in early 1995 with Bill Coleman and Ed Scott, had managed just about every aspect of BEA by the time he became CEO in October 2001.
Chuang worked for more than seven years in the commercial computing, software systems research, and systems consulting industries, where, with many published technical papers to his credit, he became a well-known expert on enterprise information technology rightsizing and distributed data management.
Chuang received a B.S. in computer science from the University of San Francisco and a masters degree in computer science with specialization in distributed data management from the University of California, Davis.
AlfredChuang is a painfully shy man who finds himself adjusting to the most public of jobs.
Chuang is also trying to convince customers that BEA won't try to lock them into buying more hardware or consulting services than they need, an industry practice that has left a bad taste in the mouths of information-technology buyers.
And Chuang, who rose through the ranks as an information-systems specialist at Sun Microsystems, would be the tech guru, the guy who spotted technology trends and made sure BEA stayed ahead of them.
