After 20 years, the AS/400 is still relevant to today's computing environments. IBM has called it by a lot of different names – AS/400, iSeries System and now Power Systems. It’s not the same system that IBM introduced many years ago. It has continued to evolve and remains a prominent computing platform.
AS/400 users want a development partner that is just as passionate about the reliability, convenience and low cost of ownership of the AS/400 as they are. The Freeborders AS/400 Center Of Excellence helps clients address issues such as balancing cost, complexity and capacity for all areas of the application life cycle.
