Architecture
The JAMS architecture gives operators everything they need to keep their jobs and automation running smoothly, consisting of three main elements—the client, the engine, and the agent.
Code-Driven Automation

Low-Code Automation
Further streamline rule-based, repetitive, tasks by bringing user-friendly automation to the people who know their processes best. Maintain visibility and control over that automation in JAMS.
Monitor
The JAMS monitor is the command center where you can see your centralized workload automation environment – including currently running and recently completed jobs, organized by user preference.
Event-Based Scheduling
JAMS provides for event-based job scheduling to allow jobs and processes to be triggered by events such as file transfers, system startups, runaway processes, or user-defined events.
File Transfer Capabilities
JAMS brings enterprise workflow control to each and every file transfer through a built-in FTP execution method that ensures that critical file transfers are centrally defined, monitored, audited, and logged.
Dashboards
Maximize job visibility with vivid automation dashboards that give you a complete picture of your jobs for the assurance that your schedule will run smoothly—and the ability to troubleshoot fast.
Reporting
Easily create detailed workload reports on any aspect of your automated workloads and batch processes to deliver informative, easy-to-read content that turns jobs into clear concise snapshots.
Alerting
Stay ahead of issues before they become problems with comprehensive alerts that include email, voice, SMS, and SCOM communications.
Security
Apply uncompromising security to your enterprise’s entire spectrum of batch processes through a unique architecture that preserves security protocols set by individual platforms and applications.
