AutoSys Workload Automation
What Is AutoSys Workload Automation?
AutoSys workload automation provides enterprise-grade, scalable batch workloads across hybrid environments. Designed to automate complex batch processes across different platforms, this is your opportunity to prevent costly bottlenecks or tech issues. If your current job schedulers feel fragmented or require a lot of manual input, AutoSys offers a more streamlined alternative. Ignite Technology supports your migration with planning, implementation and ongoing support.

AutoSys Migration Risks that Ignite Helps You Avoid
Project Delays
Workload migration projects often stall due to rebuilding thousands of legacy jobs across hybrid environments. Leveraging over 20 years of expertise, Ignite uses roadmaps and strategies to reduce implementation timelines from months down to weeks or even days.
Manual Job Conversion Errors
Manually translating jobs from outdated schedulers introduces human error that could disrupt your workflows. Ignite’s experts manage automated job conversion and validation testing to ensure your cross-platform dependencies work as intended.
SLA Breaches
Post-migration bottlenecks and resource strain cause missed SLAs. Ignite integrates Automation Analytics & Intelligence (AAI) with AutoSys, introducing predictive analytics that allow teams to catch and resolve potential failures before SLAs are breached.
Fragmented Monitoring
Failing to decommission old tools results in disconnected systems and data silos. This makes operational oversight and troubleshooting almost impossible. Ignite consolidates your disparate tools into a unified platform using AutoSys’s native API integrations.
Licensing & Cost Management Oversights
Mismanaging vendor licensing tiers during a major migration can lead to compliance penalties and unexpected operational expenses. Ignite offers transparent delivery that covers licensing, implementation, and ongoing maintenance. This ensures the new architecture is cost-effective from day one.
Why Choose AutoSys Job Scheduler?
As an enterprise-level IT operation manager or infrastructure lead, you’ll be familiar with the challenges of managing IT batch processes.
Various systems and databases make it difficult to keep everything coordinated. Too much data can be processed at peak usage times, leading to lengthier running times and strained resource performance. Troubleshooting causes of mid-process glitches can also take significant time.
AutoSys was developed to:
- Streamline workflow and data processing
- Capture issues earlier, and even prevent them from happening through a centralised system
- Reduce costs on managing IT systems as the automated software reliably performs business-critical background tasks
- Provide automated notifications of any system anomalies that need addressing.

Centralised Governance & SLA Management
Gain full visibility and control with audit trails, error tracking, reporting, and policy enforcement.
Extensive Application Support
AutoSys integrates out of the box with business apps like SAP, Oracle E-Business and PeopleSoft, as well as Hadoop pipelines.
Why Use AAI with AutoSys
“We had no good way to understand how AutoSys was performing.” Manager, Integration Services
AutoSys is powerful, but without real-time analytics and predictive intelligence, gaps can impact performance. Automation Analytics & Intelligence (AAI) solves critical limitations of AutoSys alone. That means you can fix problems before they even materialise or cause a bottleneck.
Broadcom commissioned a Total Economic Impact (TEI) study to examine the potential return on investment (ROI) enterprises could achieve by deploying Automic Automation Intelligence on top of their workload automation platforms.
A global financial services firm using AutoSys Workload Automation was experiencing frequent SLA breaches due to scale and complexity with a dependence on employees to diagnose issues.
After investing in AAI, they saw significantly fewer SLA breaches and improved collaboration between IT and business teams.

FAQs About AutoSys Workload Automation
AutoSys supports multiple operating systems, allowing for seamless integration across different platforms. The system is designed to monitor job schedules across various platforms, including Unix, Windows and Linux.
Yes, AutoSys is designed to seamlessly connect with your current cloud services, databases and applications, providing a centralised solution. The Ignite team is on hand to support the integration from start to finish.
AutoSys provides higher levels of scalability than other systems and doesn’t require multiple server instances, which supports a growing workload or workforce.
AutoSys provides a number of reports which include: AutoSys Autotrack Report, AutoSys Event Report, AutoSys Job Run Report and the AutoSys Job Status Report. You’re able to create and manage the definitions of these reports.
With built-in fault tolerance, AutoSys provides automated recovery for mission-critical IT and business processes. Broadcom recommends that you back up certain definitions periodically, such as calendar and machine definitions so that you have files to restore should a system failure occur.
AutoSys acts as a single control plane for hybrid IT environments, seamlessly orchestrating workloads across legacy mainframes, on-premises UNIX/Linux/Windows servers, and multi-cloud platforms. It connects traditional infrastructure and the modern data stack through native integrations for cloud-native services and data processing tools, such as HDFS, Hive, Pig, and Sqoop.
Relying on manual scripting and disconnected scheduling tools creates islands of automation that limit visibility and increase the risk of human error. AutoSys removes these silos by providing centralised control and audit trails through a single interface. Its extensive out-of-the-box native integrations for major business applications, such as SAP, Oracle E-Business Suite, and PeopleSoft, allow enterprise teams to more easily automate their workflows.
AutoSys features offer high interoperability across systems through event-driven scheduling. Combining this with Automation Analytics & Intelligence (AAI), Ignite Technology helps enterprises transition to predictive intelligence, rather than relying on reactive monitoring. This allows your teams to track SLAs in real time, capture mid-process glitches earlier and analyse job runs to prevent system anomalies.

Tackling the Automation Paradox
This eBook explores how fragmented automation tools can hinder business performance. It reveals how a unified automation strategy brings together disconnected systems into a single, end-to-end platform, giving you full visibility and control over complex workloads.
Don't let automation silos hold your business back from growth
Many businesses already have automation software. The problem is that the systems are disconnected. Having separate systems that don’t ‘talk’ to each other can limit the accessibility of data, known as data silos or islands of automation.
