Tier 1 AS/400 Managed Colocation
Your AS/400 (iSeries System i5) is moved to Synergistic's secure, staffed, Data Center where it is hosted and managed by our experienced Technical Engineers run and manage your systems 24/7. The day to day operations are managed by us. We monitor your systems, keep them operational, and monitor communications. You effectively outsource the management and daily operations of your AS/400 to our Technical Engineers, yet you remain in total control of the hardware and software.

The primary motive behind our clients that colocate their AS400 to Synergsitic is management. Outsourcing IT operations is disruptive many times. The outsourcing firm takes over IT operations from the top down and restructures in pursuit of cost and overhead savings.

Synergistic Managed Colocation and Managed Hosting Services take a different approach. Synergistic specializes in providing operational management without disrupting your team that is working effectively. You aren't losing personnel or control- you're adding our staff to your existing structure.

There are two options if you are seeking to farm out the operational management of your AS/400: 1) Synergistic's Onsite Management package coupled with our 400RSM remote monitoring and management service. This combination provides remote monitoring of your system stability and security, while providing onsite assistance with backups, upgrades, PTF's, etc. 2) Place your AS400 in one of our data centers and Synergistic will manage your system 24/7 from our staffed, secure data centers.

The advantage to this solution is you pay only for the processing power you need and avoid large upgrade capital expenditures every 36 months and replace that with a consistent, predictable, monthly fee.
