Enterprise Job Scheduler Software
An Enterprise Job Scheduler software that enables automation of complex interconnected job scheduling tasks across any mid-range platform and database, and can be centrally managed and control remote jobs scheduler processes remotely. The Enterprise Job Scheduler software supports native installation in every midrange environment, including IBM i (iSeries AS400), Windows, Linux, AIX, HP-UX and Solaris environments, enabling optimum throughput, accuracy and efficiency. A migration utility allows a customer’s portable batch system with existing scheduled jobs to very quickly and simply export and import exiting job schedule entries, configurations and policies via an excel spreadsheet.
The Enterprise Job Scheduler software can also be used for single platform use cases, such as an IBM i job scheduler, and is an ideal alternative to replace Fortra’s Robot job scheduler software, capable of replacing all Robot Job Scheduler features, while also adding many other AS400 job scheduling features such as keyboard stroke and screen capture, integration with common applications such as JD Edwards, MAPICS, Jack Henry, IBS, BPCS, BASIS and others. Built-in high availability features ensure environments are 100% protected with mirrored failover system. The Enterprise Job Scheduler software for IBM i costs less than Fortra’s Robot job scheduler software and a license can be used on unlimited LPARs at no extra cost. It is not only surprisingly a much cheaper interactive and batch scheduler, your jobs scheduling capabilities will no longer be limited to the status quo.
The Enterprise Job Scheduler software is the most advanced and flexible job automation software on the market, that ensures all jobs, including remote scheduler jobs run on time, in the correct order and provides real-time visibility of job processes across all platforms. Jobs can be scheduled using calendars, intervals or can be triggered by other jobs and events that meet specified criteria of which can be jobs and events can be on a different platform located elsewhere. At any point in the job flow, dependent events can trigger cascading events on the local or remote servers, or can be reactive to the outcome based on condition variables on the local or remote servers or can be triggered based on time. Furthermore, any event in the job chain can trigger real-time alerts and perform screen capture. Dependent jobs being triggered can also utilize complex variables to determine if specific conditions have been met before starting. There is no job scheduling process that is too hard or complex that cannot be accomplished with the Enterprise Job Scheduler.
Why switch job scheduling software?
The Enterprise Job Scheduler typically saves IBM i customers between 50-200% in maintenance costs per year. It is the most advanced job scheduling software for the IBM i platform on the market. Migrating existing jobs scheduled from either Fortra Robot job scheduler or IBM job scheduler is as simple as exporting and importing a spreadsheet. The Enterprise job scheduler is also an ideal replacement alternative for JAMS scheduler, Control m scheduler, Tidal enterprise scheduler and any other off the shelf Windows job scheduler or Linux job scheduler. Regardless of the platforms the Enterprise Job Scheduler manages, the same GUI and Web interfaces are used to configure job automation, view and manage all local and remote scheduler jobs. No need to hire expensive automation engineers or developers to create portable batch systems for job automation.
Intuitive and simple is what the Enterprise Job Scheduler delivers. It uses the same user interface to manage all platforms and operating systems, allowing access to all enterprise jobs, regardless of which application or server they are running. Every scheduled job can be monitored and managed from any web-enabled device and from anywhere in the world, allowing administrators complete visibility and control of every remote jobs scheduler process of every business division, application and server regardless of location.
Security can be managed by LDAP, and granular controls allow users can be limited to only see and manage schedules they are permitted. Job flows are documented in great detail, are archived, can have reports distributed, and used for forecasting. You can even reverse job changes and undo deletions that do not perform as planned. Real-time alerts are sent automatically when problems occur and escalated to the appropriate individuals based on shifts. All scheduled job adds, changes and deletes are audited and documented in a PDF format.
Simple and intuitive is the theme. Predefined reports ready to run, include run sheets that describe every job’s run history, real-time statistics and status of current jobs, and scheduler planner Gannt charts that make forecasting and planning of new jobs effortless. Any report can be distributed as an email to the appropriate group, and reports can archived in PDF or Excel format. Regulatory and compliance audit reports are also included.
