Frametech LLC has filed its first litigation, suing Broadcom (6:23-cv-00495), IBM (2:23-cv-00326), KKR & Co. (BMC Software) (6:23-cv-00494), and Micro Focus (4:23-cv-02572) over the support of software deployment functionalities in their various products: for Broadcom, over its Chorus Software Manager; for IBM, over its z/OS Management Facility system management platform; for BMC Software, over its IPSW Deploy Application Development work environment; and for Micro Focus, over the Enterprise Developer 7.0 for Eclipse integrated development environment (IDE). The patents-in-campaign—generally related to remotely “upgrading” an operating system on a “mainframe computer system”—were asserted briefly by a different plaintiff in separate complaints filed in late 2021 against BMC Software and VMware.
