Abstract
Industry analysts generally agree that among network and systems
management applications, automated job scheduling software ranks
among the most proven in terms of return on investment and maturity
of the products. Indeed, Gartner cite it as the best proven option
in the context of its Network and Systems Management hype cycle.
Recent legislation such as Sarbanes-Oxley and the European directives
provides a further incentive for organisations to implement best
practice and standards, and to automate processes where possible
to ensure they are carried out as designed. By implementing automated
batch job scheduling, human error can be reduced significantly and
access control strengthened. This can be reinforced by the encapsulaton
of interactive processes so that all IT operations policies are enforced
by software, while being monitored and audited.
This white paper discusses a job scheduling
and IT operations workflow
management solution for mid to large size organizations running UNIX,
Linux and Microsoft Windows. It produces benefits in efficiency,
control, improved service levels, security, auditing and compliance.
