SQL Job Scheduler

Automate SQL Server Workflows with JAMS SQL Integration

JAMS brings automation and order to repetitive SQL jobs. JAMS SQL Scheduler helps data-driven organizations use SQL to its full potential without costly investments in database management tools and personnel. DBAs who employ centralized workload automation with JAMS are able to:

  • Schedule, audit, and analyze job activity across every SQL server
  • Provide self-serve access for specific SQL jobs, to specific business users
  • Notify and be notified when critical SQL processes face delays or issues

Key Benefits of An Integrated SQL Server Job Scheduler

  • Enable cross-platform, event-driven scheduling by executing an SQL Server job on a Windows platform that can trigger a job to begin on another
  • React to events external to SQL server, such as file arrivals or changes, processes starting or ending, and SNMP traps
  • Check for conditions which must be met before a job executes, such as the availability of a SQL Server
  • Direct scheduling or your SSIS packages
  • Free up your Database Administrators for more complex tasks by moving the scheduling of SQL Server jobs to the Operations or a Production Control area
  • Assign scheduling exceptions, such as run time range and non-working days, to a job’s regular schedule
  • Meet Service Level Agreements with monitors for job underruns, overruns, and late starts
  • Access job logs and audit histories for troubleshooting
  • Receive immediate alerts if a SQL Server job fails, runs longer than normal, or is late to start so that you can fix the error quickly
  • Set up and schedule a single SQL Server job that runs on multiple servers, simplifying and streamlining the scheduling process.
  • Quickly comply with audits and regulatory requirements

WHY MOVE ON FROM SQL SERVER AGENT? 

The benefit of native schedulers like SQL Server Agent is that they’re free and already come included with your software. But the lack of enterprise features in SQL Server Agent can be limiting and end up costing you. 

Without the ability to run jobs across multiple platforms, you’re limited to batch and SQL-based automation. Plus, there are no ways to configure schedules when jobs have more advanced requirements like run times of every other week, on a specific date, or for a set number of days.

Drive Business Risks Out of the Datacenter

JAMS security helps highly regulated businesses close off workaround routes that many applications use to access SQL data. JAMS automation focuses on requirements that are common to all enterprise platforms and applications: security, version control, auditability and usability. Leveraging JAMS ensures that batch automation is aligned with the same standards you established when you implemented SQL Server.
