About John Keagy
John Keagy is CEO and Co-Founder of GoGrid, the Cloud Computing Division of ServePath, the Managed Hosting provider based in San Francisco. Keagy is an Internet infrastructure pioneer, having built and sold several successful Internet service providers since 1991. At ServePath, Keagy drove the early growth of the dedicated server hosting market by introducing multiple firsts, including multiprocessor servers and hosted load balanced server networks. John Keagy's entrepreneurial skills and strategic vision have led ServePath and GoGrid's rapid growth. The company was recently named to Deloitte's Technology Fast 500 in recognition of its growth (#11 in Silicon Valley and #77 in North America).
With over 15 years of hosting experience under his belt, John broke new ground with his vision of Cloud Computing, long before the term was even coined. As a result, GoGrid was revealed in 2008 winning many accolades including Best of Show at LinuxWorld 2008. In 2006, Keagy saw the impending shift to the cloud as ServePath's second growth opportunity. Keagy's vision became a two year development effort resulting in GoGrid, the hosting service launched in March 2008 that enables customers to deploy, scale and manage load balanced servers in the cloud in just minutes through a web-based control panel.
In 1994, John founded the West Coast's largest, profitable, dial-up Internet Service Provider which was the first to deliver local internet access in over 30 cities. John received a Bachelor of Science degree in Civil Engineering from UC Berkeley where he earned the Kennedy Award in Business Administration. He is also an alumnus of the Stanford Business School Executive Program.
John lives with his wife, two children and dog in San Francisco and is an avid instrument-rated multi-engine pilot.
