What is Workload Automation?
Everyday we take things for granted, the ability to withdraw cash from a cash machine, the mail delivery of our bank statements, the TV guide on our televisions at the touch of a button, and the real-time train information available on our phones. We expect this information to be available on demand but rarely consider what happens behind the scenes to make it so.
Consider if every time you wanted to withdraw some money someone had to update your account manually, or that someone had to handwrite your bank statements, TV listings and real-time train information. The world would be a far slower, less efficient and a somewhat frustrating place. Put simply it would be like going back in time with today's population creating chaos.
Each of the examples described above have efficiently managed demand on human resources with careful use of WA. The use of WA in these scenarios has made life simpler, more efficient and less prone to error by replacing manual processes with automated software.
Workload Automation is a concept that has evolved from Job Scheduling. Job Scheduling being the batch processing of a series of programs ("jobs") on a computer without manual intervention.
The concept of WA has widened in recent years mainly due to rapid advances in technology but ultimately it remains focused on removing manual effort. The technological advances made in WA have blurred the lines of conventional Job Scheduling, extending WA into the realms of Virtualization, Cloud Computing and Web Services to name a few.
