True or False: The IBM i operating system is just the AS/400 all over again. False! The AS/400 provided a solid foundation, but it has evolved over the years into the entirely new technology that we call IBM i. It now has been IBM i longer than the old AS/400 name.
The 2022 chapter in our journey from AS/400 to IBM i includes new cloud offerings, new Technology Refreshes, new 7.5 OS level, new i Navigator interface, new customers, and a strong roadmap. How do these additions make the platform more powerful?
During this session, IBM i CTO & Chief Architect/IBM Distinguished Engineer Steve Will joins IBM Power Champion Tom Huntington to share a unique perspective on the direction of this platform, including:
- IBM’s technology and business strategies for IBM i
- Ways that IBM i fits into your cloud strategy
- How IBM i tools help you to modernize
- Key takeaways from the AS/400 days
IBM i is unique in design, security, scalability, and application development. Its heritage and strategic innovation point to a bright future for this strategic server that continues to support organizations in every industry around the world.
