Sybase, actually

The first Sybase grew out of the Ingres project at UCB, so transitively, SQL Server is also a descendant.

bob epstein was vp at brittion-lee when he left to form sybase. BLI built a relational database machine (IDM), which was influenced by ingres but not much was inherited, code wise. sybase used a VM/pcode architecture, very much not like ingres.

Neat, thanks for elaborating, I knew BLI grew out of the ingres project but not how closely they were related.
