Sys admins have been weeping but slowly getting over the abuse of "cloud" for a while now... safety-critical software engineers will have a shoulder to cry on!
In all seriousness, there's a range of of real-time systems (soft to hard) and systems that contain a mix of these requirements. You can argue that these new "real-time!" javascript systems are soft real-time systems. i.e. they contain a soft real-time constraint for state to propagate to clients before a deadline, after which the system starts losing its quality.
