Marc Fleury is a Franco-American computer scientist, physicist and businessperson. He is a pioneer of the Open Source movement and the creator of JBoss, an open-source Java application server.

Early life and education

Fleury was born in Paris, France, to a French father and Spanish mother, and came to the US in the early nineties to work on his doctoral thesis as a visiting scientist at MIT. He earned his Ph.D.from the École Polytechnique, in Paris, France in 1997. He holds a Masters in Theoretical Physics from the École Normale Supérieure.[1] rue d'Ulm (1993). His undergraduate degree was in Mathematics from the Ecole Polytechnique, Palaiseau (1989).  While at École Polytechnique, Fleury studied Bell Inequalities under the tutoring of Alain Aspect. He served in the military, as a paratrooper, with the rank of lieutenant in the 17th Parachute Engineer Regiment.[2]

Software Entrepreneur: JBoss

Fleury worked in France for Sun Microsystems before moving to the United States where he has worked on various Java projects.[3] Fleury's research interest focused on middleware, and he started the JBoss project in 1999. JBoss Group, LLC was incorporated in 2001 in Atlanta, Georgia. JBoss became a corporation under the name JBoss, Inc. in 2004. Fleury pioneered business models of Open Source known as Professional Open Source.

After selling his company to Red Hat, Fleury became Senior Vice President and General Manager of the JBoss Division. However, Fleury went on a "paternity leave" in January 2007, supposedly until 15 March 2007 but was widely rumored to be leaving Red Hat. On 9 February 2007, his departure from Red Hat was made public, saying Fleury "has decided to leave Red Hat to pursue other personal interests, such as teaching, research in physics, music and his family."[4]

During his tenure as CEO of JBoss, Fleury published research on Aspect Oriented Software Architectures.[5][6][7] He co-authored books on the use of Java Management Extensions in J2EE servers [8][9] and keynoted at academic software conferences [10] including a keynote at CERN on the topic of internet software architectures and open source.

Scientific research

In retirement, and as an independent researcher, Fleury has returned to physics research. He has published in peer-reviewed journals on the topics of chaos theory [11] (theory and simulation), hydrodynamic walkers[12][13] (simulation and experimental), vacuum measurement technology[14](experimental).

Fleury has focused on ontologies of quantum optics and Bell's inequalities. He has performed experiments on entanglement and observed Bell Inequality Violations in a novel Foucault Geometry[15] (theory and experimental).

Fleury sponsors and funds targeted academic research and has collaborated with labs at MIT, University of Nebraska, Institut Langevin and Georgia-Tech, resulting in some of the publications listed above.[citation needed]

Technology Investments

In 2008, Fleury started a new open source project called OpenRemote, to build home automation systems.[16]

He is one of the initial investors in CloudBees, a provider of continuous delivery software services.[17]

In February 2019, Fleury joined the advisory board of the Swiss blockchain banking Fintech company Mt Pelerin.

Fleury is co-founder and serves as General Partner at digital assets management firm TwoPrime.

The Church of Space and Poèmes Électroniques

Fleury co-founded the theater and electronic music act known as "The Church of Space" or "Poèmes Électroniques" (The CoS). The CoS served a 3 years residency (2016, 2017, 2019) at MoogfesMusic and Arts festival]~. Poèmes Électroniques was featured on NPR public radio for its premiere in Atlanta in 2015.[18] Since 2018 Poèmes Électroniques has been co-headed with Prof. Stuart Gerber of the Georgia State music dept.[19][20]
