how about Oracle 8i with a built in Java Virtual machine. Every major database vendor is incorporating Java in the database replacing PL/SQL, Transact*SQL - in other words its becoming the universal data access and storage mechanism from client to datatier. The middle tear with Enterprise Java Beans is going to be pretty much all Java.

as far as SAP, PSFT - i dont think there really the best indicators - they could run on mainframes and often do - the ERP packages are a lot more about business process than underlying technology.

I will look for the link but Forrester had a quip that 80% of Fortune 500 firms are building mission critical java applications by end of 1999- sounds good to me.
