Performance Pitfalls

Predicting the right IBM i server size is often complex, leaving workloads either underpowered and prone to downtime or oversized and unnecessarily expensive.

Achieve future readiness and sustainable growth with smart planning.

Through a detailed assessment of your current and projected workloads, we advise and assist you in determining the optimal server size for today’s needs and tomorrow’s goals. By aligning the right CPU power and memory with your IT requirements, we help you reduce infrastructure costs, prevent overloading risks, and prepare your IBM i platform to support upcoming initiatives.

Capacity Crisis

Migrating IBM i systems, originally optimized for on-premises servers, into a new environment may reduce efficiency and speed, significantly impacting business agility.

Supercharge mission-critical operations with AI-assisted, human-driven processes.

Using proven methodologies, we analyze performance gaps and fine-tune processes, resource allocation, and system utilization. This eliminates bottlenecks and delivers smoother workflows, faster responsiveness, and greater productivity. By optimizing infrastructure, we help restore speed, improve efficiency, and ensure your IBM i environment meets evolving business demands seamlessly.

License-Load

Systems that contain outdated hardware or software face escalating maintenance costs, as well as run the risk for security breaches, downtime, and noncompliance.

What Our Clients Say

quote

Are “Very Happy” and “Very Effective” the highest I can go? Changes are made quickly and correctly. My programmers here hate the way I test their code because I always find a way to break it. I’ve tried to break the PIO code and I couldn’t.

Vice President of Operations
quote

They have worked very hard to understand our highly customized system. Without the hard work and dedication they have shown, I know we would have had some issues causing downtime or lost production.

Information Technology Supervisor
quote

Very responsive and explains things to me in a way I can understand since I am not an AS400 person at all. The level of service and support with them is one of the best I have had with an outside contractor.
