Frequently Asked Questions

What is a workload migration?

A workload migration is part of the overall process of moving existing workloads, or processes, from one job scheduler or workload automation platform to a new one. This approach takes existing processes that are already running in the organization and moves them without the need to rebuild them from scratch in a new solution. An automation solution provider can speed up this process by using specialized tools designed for migration.

What is an automation migration strategy?

An automation migration strategy is the approach used to move an organization’s workloads into a new automation platform. It includes a specialized, sometimes proprietary, set of tools used to move processes quickly and accurately, used by a team of product experts. The team uses the tools in a proven process that includes steps to identify what workloads need to be migrated and what new processes need to be created. Then the processes are moved into a test environment to be validated before they are pushed to production.

What is workload automation?

Job scheduler automation is the process of automating job scheduling tools, both those that are built into existing applications or standalone tools.
