Cron replacement - ORSYP

Cron is the native job scheduler on UNIX systems, programming the automated execution of background tasks (batch jobs) at pre-determined point in time. Cron provides simple date and time-based scheduling but nothing more, no notion of working calendars, workflows, sequencing, resource dependency, event triggering, monitoring or reporting.

Dollar Universe, the advanced Cron replacement.

An advanced Cron replacement provides event-drivenand dynamic scheduling, allowing for sequencing and synchonization of batch job execution. The notion of working calendars is integrated into the advanced Cron replacement, allowing the job scheduler to take into account national and regional variations in the work calendar. The advanced Cron replacement also offers enchanced monitoring , providing a centralized graphical view of all scheduled activities in real-time.

As business processes may span multiple platforms, applications, countries and even companies, their complexity requires much more functional power than cron can offer. A Cron replacement provides a true cross-platform, cross-application job scheduling solution which adapts to any IT configuration .
