Real-World Use Cases
Here are some samples of real-world use cases that the JobScheduler has been implemented for, e.g.cross-platform scheduling; file watching or file triggering; server backup. Here is the complete Presentation: JobScheduler Use-Cases
Cross-Platform Scheduling
Processing with Agents
The JobScheduler can be operated on a number of platforms - in particular, Master and Agents can be used to run distributed job chains.
Agentless Processing
The JobScheduler provides standard jobs that allow to connect to an SSH server to execute jobs
on remote machines. Jobs can be executed on remote machines an SSH server using a standard job
provided with the JobScheduler.
File Watching
File Triggering
The JobScheduler can watch for incoming files on a Master or Agent and use this event to trigger the
start of a job chain.
File Processing
Processing can include using the JobScheduler to watch for incoming files, transfer these files to a target
server and execute follow-on jobs within one job chain.
File Transfer
Server-2-Server Transfer
The JobScheduler can use different transfer protocols for data sources and targets within a single operation.
Push Files to Internet via a Jump Host
The JobScheduler provides a secure solution for common file transfer restrictions from an Intranet to
the Internet across a DMZ.
Pull Files from Internet via a Jump Host
The JobScheduler can be used for the secure transfer of files from the Internet to an Intranet across a DMZ.
Pull Files from DMZ in Near Real Time
JobScheduler allows to watch for incoming files in a DMZ and to transfer files in near real time to the intranet.
Server Backup
The JobScheduler can be used to perform backup tasks such as backing up databases and virtual machines.
