We have had internal philosophical discussions here about what constitutes "real time." There is a competitive solution that runs FTP as often as the customer wants (every five minutes?). Is that "real time"? Our sales folks say No. Well, we delay sending events by tens of microseconds or more. Is that "real time"? If only zero delay is "real time," then no solution is "real time."
In JES3, everything ids event driven. However, in JES2 environments with multiple systems comprising a JESplex (aka MAS), we have observed delays in customer sites of upwards of five seconds before certain events are recognized by programs accessing JES2's checkpoint data.
IMHO, anything shorter than that should be considered "real" time... -- Phoenix Software International Edward E.
