*The [[Compatible Time-Sharing System]] (CTSS), one of the first [[time-sharing]] operating systems, was developed at [[MIT]]'s [[Project MAC]] using a modified 7094 with an extra bank of memory.
*[[NASA]] used 7090s, and, later, 7094s to control the Mercury and Gemini space flights. During the early [[Apollo Program]], a 7094 was kept operational to run flight planning software that had not yet been ported to mission control's newer [[System/360]] computers.

*The US Navy continued to use a 7094 at [[Pacific Missile Test Center]], [[Point Mugu]], [[California]] through much of the [[1980s]], although a "retirement" ceremony was held in July 1982. Not all of the applications had been ported to its successor, a dual-processor [[CDC Cyber]] 175.
