Don’t Let Fear of Migration Hold You Back
As Aristotle once said, “He who has overcome his fears will truly be free.” Aristotle may not have imagined his quote being used in a blog about workload automation migration fears, but his words ring true nonetheless. And having a fear of migration is legitimate. What you currently use for automation might be “ok” and
Make 2022 The Year Of Digital Transformation: Why Automation Is The Key
The COVID-19 pandemic forced organizations to rapidly implement digital-first services, operations and business models. Within months, traditional in-person industries including education, retail, healthcare and banking had to go almost completely virtual. These accelerated transformations had a profound impact on consumers. E-commerce sales increased over 80% from 2019, with 70% of consumers now using hybrid or

Trust is an important part of any business transaction. Trust within an organization is often implicit but it is a more difficult proposition when it comes to the need to share data to third parties, partners and other external organizations. Most often, this is done via a distributed database of some kind, which could take
BMC Control-M can be integrated with various tools and technologies to support end-to-end automation of batch processing and job scheduling operations. Some examples include:
Cloud platforms: Control-M can be integrated with Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Microsoft Azure, enabling organizations to achieve smooth orchestration across cloud-native tools and manage and schedule batch processing operations in a cloud-based environment.
Databases: Control-M can be integrated with Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, and IBM DB2 to extract and process data for batch processing operations.
Mainframe systems: Control-M can be integrated with mainframe systems such as IBM z/OS and UNIX/Linux systems to support batch processing operations in mixed environments.
DevOps tools: Control-M can be integrated with DevOps tools such as Hadoop, Docker, Jenkins, Java, JSON, Git, Python, and Ansible to support continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) workflows for batch processing applications.
Business Intelligence and Analytics tools: Control-M can be integrated with BI and analytics tools such as Tableau, PowerBI, and SAS to enable organizations to extract and analyze batch-processing data and generate actionable insights.
These are just a few examples of the many different tools and technologies that can be integrated with BMC Control-M to support end-to-end automation of batch processing and job scheduling operations.
Yes. For example, Redwood’s SaaS architecture eliminates the overhead of infrastructure and ongoing maintenance of the workload automation platform. Redwood also includes all features with unlimited connections to applications, services, and servers without licensing additional plugins. With Redwood’s simple pricing model, you only pay for the jobs you run, gaining enterprise-grade flexibility and scalability to help you grow. Explore why Redwood’s unified cloud platform lowers ownership costs.
Why should I consider BMC Control-M alternatives?
There are several reasons organizations may be looking at BMC Control-M alternatives, including the age of the tool, cost and complexity. Control-M is older, which makes it much less flexible end-to-end.
Also, the infrastructure is complex. For example, if an upgrade is needed, BMC Control-M often requires teams of people, multiple notifications, and dedicated downtime.
It is also expensive and can be error-prone. So, there is a chance that the optimizations you have made do not work. With BMC Control-M being based on a schedule, all IT processes need to be pre-scheduled in a sequence, which means you end up with longer processes allowing for buffer time. And the system must be shut down every day to predict the next day’s schedule, which means you are not really responding to things in real-time.
Lastly, scalability is challenging for BMC Control-M as you grow, despite cloud-based technology changing over the last 20 years. Change management has not evolved, unlike Redwood, so it feels like you are continuously “bolting on stuff to your car” instead of innovating past legacy capabilities. You can do it, but it will not work the way it optimally should as there are a lot of dependencies.
BMC’s Control-M solution is based on an architecture that is not well-suited to the needs of a modern enterprise. It requires a large installation footprint that is burdensome and time-consuming to update when security patches are needed. It has high operational and administrative costs as a result. A solution that performs more automation through agentless APIs and offers updates that upgrade every element simultaneously in minutes is significantly easier to run. See how Redwood’s SaaS delivery allows IT organizations to focus on automation not administration.
