Oracle updates lawsuit against SAP

Oracle amended its lawsuit against SAP today to include allegations of copyright infringement and breach of contract.

The suit still lists 50 “Doe” defendants, which Oracle will try to identify during the discovery phase of the suit. Oracle suing SAP could be trouble for resellers and systems integrators, experts said, if they used materials which are deemed to have been illegally taken from Oracle.

Oracle would not comment further about the suit. SAP wrote in a press release that it is “eager to vigorously defend” the allegations, but could not be reached for further comment.
