Yes this must have been it. Seems like something that didn't get traction...? I was wondering if it was the origin of something that came later such as servlets

  It wasn't on the same level of abstraction as EJB or Servlets. "San Francisco" was a business-level framework that had components for things like inventory and order management, invoicing, pricing and discounting, etc. I guess the idea was that in-house developers would write line-of-business applications on top of it instead of customising something like SAP or Oracle Applications. It didn't get much traction as a concept, but I wouldn't be surprised if something like it still existed in some corner of IBM's consulting business.
