Comparing AS400 with IBM i is similar to comparing apples with oranges since IBM i is an operating system (OS) that runs on the IBM Power Systems and AS400 is an old or legacy hardware server. There is a lot of confusion around AS400 and IBM i owing to the multiple name changes.
AS400 has been rebranded by IBM several times. Today, AS400 is called IBM Power Systems. In the year 2000, AS400 was rebranded as the IBM iSeries server and six years later, the IBM iSeries server was replaced with the IBM system. Finally, it changed to IBM Power Systems back in 2008.
The short answer is yes. AS400 has been around for several decades but this legacy IT asset is aged well now and requires modernization at large. When launched initially, AS400 was acclaimed for its high uptime rate, unbreachable security, robustness, and low ownership cost. However, today many enterprises using AS400 are encountering several challenges.
AS400 is used by many enterprises level organizations for powering mission-critical workloads and applications. Since it comes with firewall capabilities and a web-enabled server, it is ideal for running eCommerce businesses. Besides this, AS400 is used across industries that demand reliability such as manufacturing and production.
Depending on the scope, the project duration can be anywhere from a few weeks to a couple of months. We follow an agile approach to migrate AS400 to Azure, AWS, or Google Cloud from on-premise with the highest quality standards.
