Automic Software for Workload Automation
Trusted by our global clients
Automic is an all-in-one workload automation platform designed for hybrid environments
Automic Workload Automation is Broadcom’s enterprise job orchestration platform, sold and delivered exclusively through Broadcom’s certified partner network rather than direct from Broadcom. That makes the partner you choose as important as the platform itself: implementation quality, ongoing support, and how well your partner understands your existing automation estate all come from the partner, not the vendor. Ignite Technology is a Broadcom Expert Advantage Partner specialising in Automic, with over two decades of automation delivery experience and projects typically live in days or weeks rather than months.
Automic Workload Automation supports event-driven automation (e.g., ERP integration, file drops, API calls, database updates) and time-based scheduling, with robust features for parallel processing, dependency management, and error handling. For enterprise organisations, AWA is the best-fit automation solution with complex infrastructure demands, offering scale, reliability, and API-driven flexibility.
A leading Gartner® Magic Quadrant solution
Automic Automation has been named a Leader in Gartner’s Magic Quadrant for Service Orchestration and Automation Platforms for two consecutive years, recognised for its scalability and its Automation Analytics and Intelligence (AAI) capability. Ignite implements Automic as part of every automation engagement we deliver.
Integration with SAP and Oracle ERP Systems
Automic’s integration capabilities with SAP and Oracle ERP systems supports the automation of business processes efficiently without manual intervention. It saves time on essential, monotonous tasks — the result includes greater efficiency, productivity and fewer manual errors or missed deadlines.

How Does Automic Workload Automation (AWA) Fit Into Our Automation Ecosystem
Ignite’s portfolio includes powerful workload automation engines including Broadcom’s leading automation solution Automic Workload Automation, and its wider suite of solutions including AutoSys, Dollar Universe, AppWorx, and ESP dSeries. Each is designed to automate and schedule tasks across different platforms and business environments.
To unify and orchestrate these tools within a single framework, we use Automation Analytics & Intelligence (AAI), the analytics and control layer that sits above these engines. AAI provides centralised monitoring, SLA forecasting, and cross-platform workload intelligence. It acts as the hub that brings together multiple schedulers into a single pane of glass.
With this approach:
- You can manage business processes across mainframe, cloud, or hybrid environments in one end-to-end view
- You gain predictive insights and proactive alerting to keep workflows on track
- You reduce complexity by standardising visibility across all schedulers
This ecosystem approach enables enterprises to maintain best-of-breed automation tools while gaining the unified control and visibility required to operate at scale.
