Microsoft Could Face Lawsuit Over SQL Server

Jeremey Kirk writes on InfoWorld:

Microsoft could face another lawsuit from a patent portfolio company over technology within its SQL Server database.

Timeline, of Seattle, said Monday it terminated a limited license agreement forged with Microsoft in 1999 after the software giant allegedly breached its terms.

Timeline also charged that Microsoft's SQL Server infringes on patents held by Timeline concerning online analytical processing.
