The case that I was thinking of was in Canada (Toronto?) and used an 1108 rather than the more obvious 490. The IBM 1130 and 1800 were smaller machines. I wouldn't be surprised to see some Burroughs, CDC, DEC, DG, GE or Honeywell machines having been used for similar applications.

There have been mainframes running real time applications since the 1960s. Air traffic control. Airline reservations. Controlling traffic lights (UNIVAC, not IBM.) These may not be the best examples, but they were the first to come to mind, and used off the shelf mainframes. ________________________________________ From: IBM Mainframe Discussion List [[email protected]] on behalf of René Jansen [[email protected]] Sent: Monday, June 20, 2022 5:50 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Modernize Mainframe Applications for Hybrid Cloud with IBM and AWS You can make that 'about 30 years ago' - time flies while we're having fun.
