Quite a few data stores use CRDTs under the hood.

Redis uses CRDTs for active-active architectures [1] and for some of their native data structures [2].

Riak also uses them in their data store [3].

And looks like PayPal might use them for consensus purposes (I found this while looking up the Riak talk so I haven't actually watched it) [4]
