With 2026 right around the corner, organizations are planning to make strategic moves that will position the company for a successful 2026.
Kathy Larson, senior manager, product marketing at Rocket Software, outlined several key areas to watch out for.
Bridge the Database Administration Skills Gap
A high-performing database requires expert management. As experienced UniVerse and UniData administrators become harder to find, a skills gap can emerge within the team, putting system stability and performance at risk. Rocket designed the UniVerse and UniData Database Administration Workshop to address this challenge directly.
This intensive workshop delivers essential knowledge transfer and hands-on mentoring by covering best practices and advanced concepts to help teams maintain, control, and manage Rocket UniVerse or UniData database with confidence.
Strengthen Your Defenses: Test Your Disaster Recovery Plan
In an environment where business continuity is non-negotiable, a reliable disaster recovery (DR) plan is essential.
Regularly testing the DR plan ensures organizations are prepared for unexpected disruptions, safeguarding your critical operations and data.
Fine-Tune Performance with a HealthCheck
Over time, even the most robust systems can develop inefficiencies that hinder performance. The end of the year is a perfect time for HealthCheck from Rocket MultiValue (MV) Professional Services.
Using customized tools and knowledge of common problem areas, Rocket will perform an extensive review of your system, considering your business processes and unique areas of concern. Rocket will also prepare and present a Findings and Recommendations Report which explains the items we’ve reviewed, issues we discovered, and corrective actions we recommend.
Upgrade Your Rocket MultiValue Data Server
Maintaining the security and efficiency of your data infrastructure requires staying current with the latest software versions. An upgrade to your Rocket MV data server provides access to the newest features, performance enhancements, and crucial security patches.
Empower Your Developers with Modern Tools and Training
Attracting and retaining development talent is critical for innovation. Providing your team with modern tools and continuous learning opportunities is a powerful way to keep them engaged and productive.
Chart Your Path with a Modernization Discovery Assessment
If you're unsure where to begin or how to continue your modernization journey, Rocket Software can help by offering its complimentary MV Modernization Discovery Assessment that provides an analysis of your organization's unique needs and goals.
“By proactively upgrading your systems, investing in your team's skills, and strategically planning for the future, you can enter 2026 with momentum and confidence. Begin implementing these initiatives today and set the stage for a strong, successful year,” Larson said.
