Michael W. "Mike" Shapiro is an American computer programmer known for his work in operating systems and enterprise storage at Sun Microsystems, Oracle, and EMC.[disambiguation needed]

While working at Sun Microsystems as a Distinguished Engineer, Mike invented and authored pgrep, the Modular Debugger (MDB), DTrace, fault management and diagnosis, and other utilities and subsystems for Sun's Solaris operating system.[1]

Shapiro and the DTrace team received a Technology Innovation Award and Overall Gold Medal for Innovation for DTrace from the Wall Street Journal in 2006.[2] DTrace was also recognized by USENIX with the Software Tools User Group (STUG) award in 2008.[3]

Starting in 2006, Shapiro led Sun's engineering effort to build a commercial storage product using Solaris and Sun's ZFS filesystem, launched in 2008.[4] After Oracle acquired Sun, Shapiro served as Vice President for Storage, managing the engineering organization for all storage products.

Shapiro announced his departure from Oracle in a 2010 blog posting,[5] and was revealed several years later as a member of the founding team of DSSD when EMC purchased the startup.[6] Mike developed the DSSD software architecture with fellow Sun engineer Jeff Bonwick and served as DSSD's Vice President for Software.

Now at EMC, Shapiro is also a co-author of the NVM Express storage protocol.[7]
