Five Standard Solutions within the Universal Automation Center (UAC) Platform
The most modern real-time IT automation and orchestration platform designed to centrally manage and orchestrate automated jobs, tasks and workflows across hybrid IT environments from on-prem to the cloud..
The Universal Automation Center (UAC) platform supports your entire hybrid IT environment, including on-premises, cloud, and containerized microservices. The platform runs automation in real-time, responds intelligently to business needs, and integrates with just about any application or platform you can throw at it.
5 Key Orchestration & Automation Solutions within the UAC Platform
The Stonebranch UAC helps organizations automate, manage, and orchestrate IT tasks and processes across multiple platforms and business applications in real-time. Within the UAC platform, we have five key solution areas. The focus is to provide an expandable and future proof solution where you can automate and orchestrate anything you need from a single platform.
Cost savings and efficiency gains are still significant, as they have always been with more traditional automation tools. However, the UAC goes further with real-time workflows that drive business agility and digital innovation. Enterprises use the UAC to create new value streams, both internally and customer facing.
1. Jobs and Workloads – The UAC has firm roots as a workload automation tool. With the solution, you can centrally build, schedule, and manage all IT tasks and business processes across your hybrid environment.
2. Cloud – In addition to on-prem, the UAC platform is made to manage cloud automation within a single cloud, hybrid cloud, or multi-cloud environments. With this solution, you can centrally orchestrate jobs and workloads, allowing you to manage workflows across your hybrid environment from a single platform. Of course, this is in addition to the platform’s ability to support both on-prem mainframes and servers.
Note: The ability to automate highly orchestrated workflows across a hybrid IT environment is a key reason many organizations decide to leverage the Universal Automation Center platform.
3. DevOps – Automate your DevOps lifecycle, connecting the dots between tools to support a CI/CD pipeline. You can empower developers with automated workflows to 3rd party source control systems, like GitHub, using jobs-as-code. Plus, developers can use self-service to spin up infrastructure in the cloud with infrastructure-as-code.
4. Big Data – Centralize the automated jobs required to support your end-to-end big data processes. This includes data collection, automating ETL solutions like Informatica, automating data tools like Hadoop, and automating the distribution of analytic and dashboard solutions like Tableau or SAP BusinessObjects. To be clear, the UAC is not designed to replace your big data tech stack. Instead, with strong integration capabilities, the UAC replaces disparate custom scripts and native job schedulers with a centralized approach to keep data moving and quickly root-cause issues.
5. Hybrid File Transfers – Combining our event-based trigger approach with manage file transfer capabilities, you can securely move data internally or between third party solutions in real-time. File transfer plays a crucial role in supporting your evolution to the cloud and keeping data in sync between disparate systems.
Note: As part of a digital transformation initiative, many clients move data between on-premises mainframes or servers and their cloud service providers. One interesting feature to support this use case is UAC’s ability to automate Red Hat Openshift and Docker containers.
