Early life

Stata received his bachelor's and master's degrees in Computer Science and Engineering from MIT, where he also earned his Ph.D. in 1996, under adviser John Guttag.[1]

Stata's father, Ray Stata, was founder and chairman of Analog Devices.[2]

Career

After finishing his Ph.D., Stata worked for Digital Equipment Corporation's Systems Research Center, where he contributed to the AltaVista search engine.[3] He was an assistant professor of Computer Science at the Baskin School of Engineering at UC Santa Cruz, and collaborated with the Internet Archive.[4][5]

In 2002, Stata founded Stata Laboratories in Burlingame, California.[6] The company developed the Bloomba search-based e-mail client and the SAProxy anti-spam filter.[7][8]

Stata Labs was acquired by Yahoo! in 2004, for an undisclosed amount.[9][10][11] Stata continued working for Yahoo!, and in 2010, became the company's chief technology officer,[12] a position he held until he left the company in 2012.[13] With Yahoo!, Stata co-developed a composition model for cloud-hosted serving applications, for which he was granted a patent.[14] Stata was also involved early in Apache Hadoop, consulting with and eventually hiring its founders Doug Cutting and Mike Cafarella at Yahoo!.[15][16]

After leaving Yahoo! in 2012, Stata founded Altiscale,[3] a company that provided Apache Hadoop-as-a-service marketed as "big data in the cloud".[17] Altiscale was named a Cool Vendor in Big Data by Gartner for 2015.[18][19] Stata served as Altiscale's CEO until 2016, when the company was acquired by the software company SAP for more than $125 million.[20][21] Following SAP's acquisition, Stata's title with the company became Senior Vice President of Big Data Services.[22]

Since 2018, Stata has served as product and technology advisor for Aqfer, an enterprise software company developing data marketing tools.[23] Stata also serves on the board for technology companies Vanu[24] and Gamalon.[25]

Stata is on the Advisory Council for QuakeFinder, a research and development group focusing on earthquake prediction.[26] Until 2018, he served on the board of trustees for the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California.[27]
