    The last version of AIX to run on x86 was AIX 1.3.

    You can run AIX (7.2 at least) under qemu but it's excruciatingly slow and pretty much useless.  Version 1.3 for x86 is so old, it is also useless even for educational purposes.

    PowerVS?  I think there are a few other Power/AIX VPS service out there too.  To run AIX 7.3 you'd need a Power8 at a minimum.  Not sure what those are running used at this point.
