Learn about AIX and AS400
AIX (Advanced Interactive eXecutive) and AS400 (IBM i) are both IBM operating systems, but they serve different purposes and platforms. AIX is a Unix-based OS primarily used on IBM Power Systems, offering robust performance for enterprise applications, particularly in environments that require high scalability and stability. AS400, on the other hand, is an integrated system combining hardware, software, and storage, known for its strong backward compatibility and support for business-critical applications. While AIX is widely adopted in industries needing Unix capabilities, AS400 is favored for its integrated database (DB2) and ease of use for mid-sized businesses. Organizations often integrate AIX with AS400 to leverage the strengths of both systems, enhancing their IT infrastructure with a blend of Unix-based processing and reliable enterprise application management.
