A Truly Powerful Enterprise Job Scheduler


Event-Driven Architecture

ActiveBatch's event-driven scheduling functionality provides advanced enterprise scheduling capabilities so that IT teams can worry less about routine process automation and focus more on higher-value tasks and innovation. 

Minimize manual interventions with an array of event triggers for business and IT tasks, including email, file events, FTP file triggers, data modifications, and more. Improve batch scheduling with event triggers that allow batch jobs to be run in the most efficient manner possible.

Reduce delays and improve compliance with SLAs using constraint-based scheduling. ActiveBatch supports constraint-based and date/time scheduling, including custom holidays, fiscal calendars, and multiple time zones. 

ActiveBatch gives you additional capabilities beyond the Windows task scheduler, offering the opportunity for total digital transformation of the IT process.   


ActiveBatch Integrated Jobs Library

Build IT and Business Workflows Seamlessly

ActiveBatch’s Integrated Jobs Library provides hundreds of prebuilt, drag-and-drop Job Steps that can be used for commonly-scripted actions and functions in enterprise applications. Easily connect to any application, server or service with an API using ActiveBatch’s low-code API accessibility. Our no-code, low-code approach makes it fast and easy to build dynamic, end-to-end workflows that reduce manual tasks and accelerate digital transformation. Create workflows in the following areas:

  • Enterprise applications: Microsoft app suite, enterprise resource management (ERP), business process management (BPM), and BI tools       

  • Enterprise data center: Hadoop Ecosystem, SAP, Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle Databases, Informatica, IBM, and other ETL tools      

  • Infrastructure automation: on-premises data centers plus cloud vendors including VMware, Amazon EC2, Microsoft Azure for hybrid-IT and multi-cloud orchestration

  • Secure file transfers: MFT, SFTP, FTPS, with advanced file event triggers and parallel transfer capabilities

 

SLA Monitoring

ActiveBatch monitors IT processes to proactively prevent job failures, overruns, and SLA failures. With high availability non-cluster failover, jobs and plans are redirected to standby resources. Users can also monitor workflows in real-time and access in-depth reports to ensure workflows are optimized and processes are streamlined in the IT environment. Plus, versatile notifications keep your team informed and can trigger auto-remediation workflows so IT can avoid issues and stop wasting time fighting fires.

 

Self-Service Portal

Self-Service Job Scheduling for Business Users

ActiveBatch Self-Service Portal provides business end-users with a user-friendly environment where they can run and monitor workflows.

The portal enables non-IT users to run and monitor critical business processes like querying data, sharing files or generating reports. This means that business does not have to wait on IT when a process stalls, or when information needs to be processed for case management tasks
 

Frequently Asked Questions

The distinction between an enterprise job scheduling software and a native scheduler is that an enterprise job scheduler allows IT to centralize control of its automated cross-platform processes. Enterprise job schedulers support date/time scheduling, batch processing, event triggers, and constraint-based scheduling and enable IT to schedule jobs and batch jobs across disparate applications and systems for end-to-end orchestration. Avoid future work jams by using a scheduling solution with an intuitive, web-based console. Explore ActiveBatch’s job scheduling features.

Enterprise job scheduling tools should support workflows and initiatives across Windows and non-Windows systems. Universal scheduling solutions offer extensive support for Windows technologies and operating systems such as .NET assemblies, Active Directory, SQL Server, System Center, and Azure, plus cross-platform support for Linux/UNIX, java, web-based services, LDAP, and more.
