Mobius Content Services Data Archiving, Done Right
Archon’s Mobius Connector extracts documents, reports, and statements from the Mobius content services repository along with their associated index metadata, migrating content into ADS. Extracted content is full-text indexed via Archon Analyzer and accessible via cross-application search, eliminating Mobius infrastructure and license dependency for ongoing compliance access.
Mobius Management Systems provides content services and report archiving solutions deployed in financial services, insurance, and utilities sectors, storing customer statements, regulatory reports, batch output, and business documents in a proprietary repository. As organizations evaluate their ECM vendor relationships and modernize content management infrastructure, Mobius carries significant regulatory retention obligations that must transfer intact to any replacement platform.
- Mobius API and direct Oracle/MS SQL Server backend extraction supported
- AFP, PDF, line data, XML reports, and image document types extracted
- Application, folder, document type, and index field metadata preserved in full
- AFP-to-PDF/A conversion for proprietary-viewer-free long-term preservation
- Full-text and metadata search via Archon Analyzer, no Mobius license post-archive /li>
Capabilities
Everything You Need for Mobius Data Operations
Report and Statement Extraction
Archon extracts millions of customer statements, billing documents, regulatory reports, and batch output files from Mobius with complete index metadata. AFP, PDF, line data, and XML content types are all handled natively.
AFP to PDF/A Conversion
Mobius-stored IBM AFP files are converted to PDF/A during extraction for long-term preservation without requiring a proprietary AFP viewer. Conversion quality is validated against the original document before ingestion.
Regulatory Compliance Archive
Every archived Mobius document is WORM-immutable from point of ingestion: cryptographically hashed, trusted-timestamped, and written to append-only audit logs. Supports SEC Rule 17a-4 for financial statement retention, FCA ICOBS and COBS for insurance record-keeping, and OFGEM for utility billing records.
Full-Text and Index Metadata Search
All archived Mobius content is full-text indexed and searchable via Archon Analyzer using preserved Mobius index metadata such as customer number, account ID, document type, and date, without a live Mobius environment.
Use Cases
How Enterprises Use the Mobius Connector
01 Mobius Decommissioning and License Retirement
Organizations retiring Mobius content services infrastructure migrate the complete document archive to ADS, applying full immutability controls during migration. Every document is immediately searchable via Archon Analyzer, eliminating the Mobius license and infrastructure dependency entirely.
02 Financial Services Statement Archive
Banks, investment firms, and insurance companies hold years of customer account statements, trade confirmations, and policy documents in Mobius. Archon archives the complete statement history with SEC Rule 17a-4 and FCA COBS/ICOBS compliance, making individual documents retrievable on demand.
03 Utilities Billing History Preservation
Utility companies retaining customer billing histories in Mobius for tariff dispute resolution and OFGEM regulatory investigation archive the complete billing document set to ADS, with OFGEM-aligned retention schedules and individual bill retrieval via Archon Analyzer.
04 Insurance Document Archive
Insurance companies holding policy documents, claims correspondence, and regulatory submissions in Mobius migrate to ADS with full FCA ICOBS compliance continuity. Archon preserves the complete insurance document record with immutability controls aligned to FCA record-keeping requirements.
