no one is providing an example of where an asyncronous transaction is needed in a business application.
Banking, manufacturing, order entry. You name it and asynchronous processing either is or can be used to advantage.
Kind of the same way that batch processing has limited usage on modern systemswhere a dual core CPU sells for $200.
Let's see: would this system be running a web server per chance? If so where do you suppose the processing for static page requests, CGI applications, Servlets, etc. is running? They are all background tasks which is the same thing as batch processing in the way discussed in this series of appends--unless you intend to hark back to batch processing like the ancient key-to-disk stuff.
Utter nonsense that batch/background processing has limited use on modern systems.
