In a government or military context, there is a minimum of 12 possible meanings, while schools and organizations share a total of 12.
The world of business and finance uses it for 14 different subjects, while the combined total of MOMs used in slang, gaming and chat averages at 24.
Some of these meanings overlap between these areas, and one the most commonly used meanings is 'Messaging Orientated Middleware'. This refers to a type of software providing an interface between various applications, allowing asynchronous sending of messages or data between them.
Data being sent from one program can thus be stored, or queued, until the receiving program is ready to process it. Without this, every application would have to ensure data sent is received correctly, creating an incredible programming burden for large enterprises.
Another frequently used meaning is Microsoft Operations Manager, another type of software, which captures and monitors application and system events throughout a network. Used within daily planning of management and capacity, it is a part of Microsoft's DSI, or Dynamic Systems Initiative.
