The IBM i ecosystem has a lot of potential for new growth under a cloud business model. Perhaps only 1 in say 1,000 of users (in our case) knows what platform they're running on. No green screens. No IBM i user profiles. No spool files. No output queues. No writers. No devices. Email instead of message queues. No PC software to install or support (such as IBM i Access). No emulation. No discussions about platform name changes. No accusations of the platform being archaic or declining. No ODBC interfaces.
Browser-based sign-on screens. Hundreds of web applications and GUI reports (HTML & PDF). Deployment of new applications and updates is a matter of saving objects on the development box and restoring them on the production server. Automated procedures for provisioning new environments for new clients. Data backup to a separate cloud co-location data center. No capital outlays. Monthly fees based on metered rates, such as a rate per student in our case.
