dotnet/java integration - commerial apps?

We are a software vendor and have been working on an integrated dotnet\java
solution to replace the legacy product offering. The new architecture is a
dotNet client with a Java backend. the java was selected to satisfy our
primary enterprise level client (who is anti-msft) and to attract new
enterprise level clients. We are using the dotNet client for a smart client
that uses web services to talk to the back-end.

While there are challenges and we have been making progress. Now, we have a
bit of a shift in our management and they want us to cite some other
references who have mixed the platforms like this.

So I am curious, is anybody aware of any commercial products that feature
the platform mix?

I don't need to contact anybody, it would be great if I could just point
then to a web page. It seems like the financial sector does this sort of
thing on a regular basis, so if anybody knows of any specific products I'd
appreciate it.

thanks,
jeff

When I was working at Clearswift, the content security company, we had
a Java back-end for message tracking, but a web application written in
ASP.NET to display the data.
