running on as/400 or iSeries boxes. Most would then use products like
datamirror to migrate it out of db2 and into sql server, etc.. to run

Who uses DB2? Is it any good, or much like IBM's other software?
Just about every IBM midrange system comes with DB2. There are an awful lot of AS/400 or iSeries out there and there were a lot of System/36 and System/38's as well.
