30 years & still an alarming 58% of AS400 users don’t leverage its true potential. While organizations might be eager for a change, they need to realize the true potential of the machine and bring about a transformation that is technologically & economically prudent.
Reasons why CIOs/CTOs are alarmed
Already put in a lot of money, approvals for a transformation are unlikely!
Scarcity of Resources
20-year old code, 40-year old hardware, 60-year old staff
Inept iSeries
Inefficiency, unknown causes, hard diagnoses
Consistent Risk
Single point of failure with long-term resources
Fear of change
Changes to a running code might be followed by chaos
Choose the right path as per your context
Staying with a problem for years doesn’t mean efforts shouldn’t be made to change!
Don't Want to Change
Well, there has been none for years. It’s high time you embraced modern options before you face business fiascos.
