Workload Automation: The Heart of Enterprise Operations

Enterprise Management Associates, December 2011, Pages: 5

Workload automation, or enterprise scheduling, is an essential capability for large IT organizations. Many IT workloads make operational and economic sense when run periodically. Designing, executing, and monitoring such workloads requires an appropriate software solution. Modern workload automation products extend traditional "job scheduling" capabilities with event-driven approaches and additional value-adding capabilities such as integrated file transfer and application-level integration.

Skybot Software is backed by Help/Systems, LLC, an industry leader in automated operations and job scheduling since 1982 with its products for the IBM i (System i, iSeries, AS/400) systems. This depth of experience is clearly visible in Skybot Scheduler, an enterprise-capable and highly cost-competitive offering for distributed systems scheduling.
