I assume these are offline activities.If so then these can be written in a batch and put in a server sceduler. Most data servers provides these kind of facility.At least AS400 and Oracle provides these.
Again java may not be the best option to do ? We had similar kind of requirements we prefered ILERPG for as400 and pro* C for Oracle.
