If you are sending messages rather than updating a database directly in real time then you are back in the batch world.
Just think about it a little bit.
Also the bit in the talk where Vivek Ranadiv talks about "transactional architecture" having it served it's purpose made me think - "I am never, ever going to buy any software from this company". If major banks are running this stuff then it's no wonder that the financial markets are in such a mess, but I guess if the money leaves Goldman Sachs's account and never reaches yours because they've stopped using outmoded things like transactions - then sh*t happens I guess.
This is precisely this kind of talk I had to hear from my (thankfully) former colleages.
