AI has changed the conversation around data.
Organizations are increasingly focused on whether the information behind analytics, automation, copilots, and agents can actually be trusted. That requires visibility into where information originated, how it changed, and how it is governed across an increasingly complex technology landscape.
We're excited that Rocket Software was named a Vendor to Watch in the 2026 IDC MarketScape for Worldwide Data Intelligence Platform Software. For us, this recognition reinforces a belief we've held for years: trusted outcomes depend on trusted context.
Many organizations still depend on a mix of mainframe, IBM i, distributed, and cloud environments. While AI adoption continues to accelerate, the challenge is rarely access to more data. The challenge is understanding and governing the information that already exists across the enterprise.
One observation from the IDC MarketScape report stood out: "Rocket is a vendor to watch for its breadth of metadata and its focus on hybrid, legacy-inclusive governance."
We believe that focus is increasingly important as organizations work to connect systems of record, analytics platforms, governance initiatives, and AI investments.
From our perspective, data intelligence is no longer just about cataloging assets. It is about creating the trust, transparency, and context needed to support business decisions and emerging AI workloads.
We're honored to be recognized and excited about the opportunity to continue helping organizations understand, govern, and trust their data wherever it lives.
