Short answer: Yes.

The first company out of the gate with a full cloud implememtation for
POWER systems which included IBM i is Logicalis. (Contact Mike Martin
in the Green Bay office) They can do it. Don't know about costs.
Logicalis is a worldwide organization with well over $1Billion in sales
so they are not going anywhere. (I do not work for Logicalis, but about
4 years ago I used to)

There are other startups that are getting ready to do the same thing,
but I don't know of any that are as far along as Logicalis is. I know
the architect that built the Logicalis cloud, and what technology they
are using and I believe it's a solid offering.

Does this match your business model, good question.

Brainstorming in management meeting today.

Instead of getting new Power 7 HW to replace our Power 5 HW, is the
state-of-the-universe such that we could entertain putting our i in the
cloud?

What I mean is, no i, no physical windows servers here, it's all out there
somewhere. The only HW here is printers, displays, thin clients, and PC
workstations.

But I still develop in house for it, still configure it, etc.
