Many enterprises use a disparate collection of applications, databases, servers and platforms to manage their business data. Each system has its own way of scheduling work, but all too often, they are not good at communicating with one another or coordinating their efforts to provide the enterprise with a consistent, up-to-date picture of information that decision-makers rely upon.

Join Mark Scott, author of The Shortcut Guide to IT Workload Automation and Job Scheduling, as he discusses how to use workload automation and scheduling to help integrate these servers and draw the information into a cohesive whole. This webinar will show you how the business can coordinate the activities of these servers as they share information while minimizing the impact on users. It will look at the process of designing and scheduling these tasks, as well as how to simplify and improve execution of job automation for the entire organization. Finally, Mark will demonstrate how the servers can be used to provide the most output for the lowest expenditure.
