yikes!
This would take this list way too far off topic, unless we wanted to talk
about Servlets talking to MQSeries to an IMS system. (there is someone on
this list doing that)*g* IMS is an old but awesomely fast db from IBM.
You'll see these systems in Banking, forestry, etc.
quote from IBM: "IMS is the fastest, most reliable database computing system
in the world, plain and simple. Customers rely on IMS systems to process
billions of vital transactions a day."
SCADA systems are used in realtime areas. You'll see this in systems that
gather staggering amounts of data. Common business areas will be oil&gas,
hydro, etc. Imagine a system that captures the attributes from flow meters
for the natural gas pipelines in North America (pressure, moisture,
temperature, and flow).
If you want to know more, I can point you in the direction off the list.
Unless the guy doing the MQ stuff wants to share his experiences.
