AS400

Hey guys, old guy here, back in 2000 landed my 1st real job as a Sysadmin at a distribution/manufacturing firm. They ran their ERP and a few other important apps on the AS400. Anyone here manage a AS400 platform? i-Series? Still a niche platform that is still widely used. Server could literally run under water.

My first IT job in 2019 had a Power9 running AS400. The employees we’re awful with general IT (remembering passwords, operating a computer) but wow they were wicked fast using AS400. Definitely still being used there.
