AS400 is a legacy machine like Mainframes. its a product of
IBM called as I-series. Programming languages used are
RPG,CL,cobol. it also supports java,fortran and many other
languages.DB2/400 is the database used. AS400 machines are
used in Banking,Insurance, Reservations etc.
When it comes to high volume of data and speed IBM
Mainframe replace AS400 machines.
AS400 is not much in demand. Most applications are getting
migrated from this technology. IBM has already stopped
support for I-Series platforms.
Atleast for the next 20 years i suppose I-series would
exist. Salary and growth are
same as other technologies, Anyways that depends on your
performance in the industry.

AS400 is an IBM machine something between mainframe and
normal PC. That's why is called midrange computers. It is
having own operating system (OS400) and inbuilt data base
system (DB2/400). It is having own languages like RPG, CL,
COBOL etc. It also supports other languages like Java, C
etc.This machine is used in many domain areas like banking,
insurance, manufacturing. Because of its strong security
most of the financial institutions use AS400 as a backend.

If you are fresher, better you think for any other technology instead of AS400, since it is Legacy system and growth rate will be less.
