AS/400 Is Alive

For many of us in the industry during the last 25+ years, the AS/400 was the go-to platform for any organization that required uptime (99.9%); reliability; virus protection; optimum audit capabilities; and little or no systems and file structure maintenance requirements. Many organizations invested a lot of money into making the AS/400 the core of their business applications strategy. Subsequently, many software providers developed applications which ran on the AS/400 platform; built upon the OS/400 operating system and DB2 data base. Software providers created applications and ERP solution(s) in most vertical industries throughout the world.

We, at BDP Technology Solutions, have a team of AS/400 architects, analysts and developers that worked with the AS/400 platform since its inception in multiple industries. Whether you are committed to the AS/400 platform for the short term, the long term or plan to transition to another business solution, we have the skills to help you in your future strategy. Please see more details below.
