modern really?
if you want reliability and solid software you don't go anywhere else other than mainframes and minis from IBM (z, i, and x)
The companies that run these do so because they are proven, the languages they support are all business oriented (math is a specialty), and the code bases are vast and stable. Oh, they all do Web-centric work just fine too.
db2 is just fine with SQL and highly optimized as well. Modern is what they are, quit thinking small is modern
