Workload Automation Software: One Flow Across Every System
Coordinate jobs, scripts, and ERP processes across on-premises and cloud servers as one controlled flow, with recovery built in.
Workload automation coordinates jobs that span many systems, so a process that touches a database, an ERP, a file share, and a cloud service runs as one controlled flow. JAMS Scheduler orchestrates those flows with Sequences, Workflows, dependencies, and events across on-premises and cloud servers.
The problem
Where scheduling ends and orchestration starts
A schedule can start a job. It can’t decide what happens when step three fails, hold a database load until two upstream systems finish, or wait for a person to approve the next step. That logic ends up in scripts only one person can read.
How it works
How JAMS Scheduler orchestrates hybrid workloads
Every step in a flow moves through the same five stages, so a multi-system process stays visible from trigger to result.
01
Trigger
A time, file, job, variable, or email submits the job
02
Dependencies
The entry waits until every precondition is met
03
Queue and Resources
Limits decide what runs now and what runs together
04
Agent
Runs on Windows, Linux, UNIX, IBM i, OpenVMS, or z/OS
05
Result and Events
History, alerts, and recovery jobs fire on the outcome
Sequences and Workflows chain these stages across systems, and Events can start a recovery job the moment a step fails.
Capabilities
Workload automation tools for multi-step processes
Sequences with parallel steps
Run steps in order or in parallel groups, and pass parameters down the chain.
Workflows with decision logic
Branch on results and pause for a human answer before the next step runs.
Resources
Keep conflicting jobs apart and cap load on shared systems across the whole flow.
Connections Store
Define connections to databases and services once and reuse them in every job.
Azure Key Vault secrets
Keep credentials in Azure Key Vault. JAMS Scheduler reads them and never writes.
Recovery jobs on failure
Events can notify the team or start a recovery job the moment a step fails.
Disaster recovery
Configure a recovery site so orchestration continues if the primary environment goes down.
JAX AI agent
Ask questions about your flows in the Web Client. JAX uses your permissions, and changes need your approval.
