My journey to IBM i e-discovery begins by visiting the homepage at There is no mention of IBM i on the homepage, but that’s not surprising, considering how many products IBM has in its catalog. I checked it the week of May 4, and by the time this story has run, it’s quite possible that IBM has overhauled its window to the world once again. IBM changes its website about as often as a teenage girl changes her hairstyle (no offense to teenage girls). But for the life of you, it’s not showing itself.

That’s true in the field, where companies sometimes aren’t even aware their applications are running on an IBM i system. If you’ve worked with the IBM i platform for any length of time, you realize that it can be hard to find.
