Rocket Software, a global technology leader in modernization software, today announced it has been named a Major Player in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Intelligent Content Services 2026 Vendor Assessment (doc #US54137426, September 2026). We believe this recognition highlights Rocket Software’s approach to helping enterprises modernize how they manage, govern and access critical content across mainframe, hybrid and cloud environments while building a trusted foundation for AI.
As enterprises accelerate AI initiatives, access to trusted enterprise content is becoming critical to turning those investments into business value. Yet, much of that information remains distributed across complex systems and applications that continue to support business operations. By bridging content across mainframe, distributed, and cloud environments, Rocket® ContentEdge™ helps customers unlock the value of their content by connecting these environments and bringing greater intelligence, automation and governance to content workflows at scale without requiring disruptive migrations.

“Most enterprises can’t get AI to access their most valuable content, because that content can’t simply be moved,” said Michael Curry, President, Data Modernization Business Unit, Rocket Software. “It lives across archives, mainframe systems, ERP systems, and records repositories with strict requirements around how that information is accessed and governed. ContentEdge helps make that content available to AI where it already lives — preserving existing access controls and keeping every answer traceable back to the source. We believe this recognition reflects our commitment to helping customers overcome these challenges, particularly for organizations operating in highly regulated environments.”
“The content services market is being reshaped by AI-driven automation, hybrid cloud modernization, and the need for tighter governance. Rocket Software’s recognition as a Major Player in this IDC MarketScape reflects its ability to modernize mainframe-adjacent content workloads while meeting enterprise security requirements,” said Amy Machado, Research Director, Content and Knowledge Discovery Strategies at IDC.

How ContentEdge Prepares Enterprise Content for AI
AI assistants and agents are now consumers of enterprise content alongside employees and applications. For organizations targeting complex AI use cases that depend on unstructured data, this shifts the requirement: information has to be managed and made accessible in ways that support insight at scale, not just storage and retrieval. That is difficult against the reality of most estates — decades of content spread across repositories, archives, and business applications, which leaves AI systems without the reliable, contextual information they need to generate insights, automate tasks, and support decision-making.
ContentEdge encompasses Rocket Software’s content services portfolio, including Mobius®, Rocket® Cypress, EOS®, Rocket® Content Automation and Audit & Analytics Services. The platform enables enterprises to address these challenges by transforming enterprise content from information stored across disparate systems into a more connected and actionable business asset.
Rocket Software continues to invest in helping organizations manage, govern, and derive greater value from enterprise content. ContentEdge combines intelligent content management, automation, information governance, and conversational AI capabilities to help customers modernize content workflows, improve access to critical information, and support compliance requirements while preserving existing technology investments.
