NetAppThe myth about identical twins is that they can simply switch places when they want to, so that being a twin is like having a best friend and a clone wrapped into one. For George Kurian, the CEO of NetApp and Thomas Kurian, Oracle's president of product development that myth is practically true. They are literal doppelgangers who rose to the top with so much togetherness, at one point they literally got up and switched jobs, sending each of them on their current path to success. George Kurian was appointed CEO of $5.5 billion storage company NetApp about a year ago after a fast, meteoric rise at the company.
