Global ECS Framework
The Global ECS framework is simple, straight-forward and time tested. GECS has support for many Agents and SSH Agents that will execute jobs/tasks on their native platforms.
Global ECS allows you to graphically schedule, automate and control complex job streams for multiple platforms in a multifaceted, distributed production environment. It delivers absolute power and control while utilizing simple to use and well-designed graphical management tools. Global ECS allows you to easily define complex jobs and batches with numerous conditional parameters such as job, file, and resource dependencies, FTP triggers, and SQL comparisons. Substitution variable usage gives unparalleled flexibility, and efficiency allowing for effortless data handling to streamline the most unique needs. It also supports multiple calendars, alerting and user definable recovery actions. By utilizing Global ECS technology, you will realize single point administration and real-time monitoring that will allow you to gain control of your enterprise-wide scheduling environment.
Key Global ECS Features:
-
Single point-of-control for monitoring and managing enterprise-wide job streams.
-
Controller/Agent model uses the power of TCP/IP to simplify communications in a distributed enterprise environment.
-
Global ECS has many capabilities that allow for a ‘Management by Exception’ approach to automating your production environment.
-
Multiple Method Scheduling (MMS) allows for simple programming and management of tasks with widely varying repetition schedules.
-
Role based security model.
-
Launches and controls any command line, including graphical and text programs, batch files, command files, PowerShell scripts, and macros.
-
Built in support to run FTP jobs utilizing FTP, SFTP, FTPS and FTPES.
-
SQL jobs and stored procedures can be run utilizing a definable database connections.
-
Service Level Agreements (SLA's) can be defined and tracked for GECS jobs and batches. You can manage your production cycle in real-time by utilizing SLA monitoring and management tools in GECS.
-
Captures return codes to detect job success or failure and allow the system to take appropriate actions.
-
Controls sequential execution and branching with sophisticated job dependencies.
-
Powerful substitution capabilities for efficient management of dynamic data and configuration settings, enhancing maintainability, and flexibility while boosting security and consistency.
