Cloud Integrations from Automation by Broadcom: Streamlining Workload Automation in IICS

Automation by Broadcom offers cloud integrations for Informatica Intelligent Cloud Services (IICS) for Automic Automation, AutoSys and dSeries. IICS is a comprehensive cloud-based integration platform offered by Informatica, a leading company in data management and integration solutions.

Improving management of workload automation in IICS

IICS allows for externally scheduled processing to trigger and manage their data integration and processing tasks. This facility offers several benefits and use cases:

1. Flexibility and integration with existing workflows

Interoperability: External scheduling enables integration with existing enterprise scheduling tools or workflows. Organizations can leverage their preferred scheduling tools or systems already in place without disrupting established processes.

Seamless Workflow Integration: Users can trigger Informatica tasks, jobs, or workflows directly from their existing scheduling environments, ensuring a smooth and coordinated data integration process within broader operational workflows.

2. Enhanced automation and coordination

Automated Execution: External schedulers allow for the automated execution of IICS jobs or tasks based on predefined schedules or triggers, reducing manual intervention and ensuring timely data processing.

Centralized Management: Integration with external schedulers centralizes the management of scheduling tasks across various systems, simplifying overall workflow orchestration and reducing the complexity of managing multiple schedules separately.

3. Advanced scheduling capabilities

Complex Scheduling Scenarios: External scheduling tools offer advanced scheduling capabilities, such as dependency management, conditional execution, and sophisticated job chaining, which can be utilized to orchestrate complex data workflows involving Informatica tasks.

4. Compliance and governance

Regulatory Compliance: External scheduling can aid in meeting compliance requirements by allowing organizations to schedule and document data integration processes in alignment with regulatory guidelines or internal governance policies.

5. Integration with enterprise ecosystem

Enterprise Ecosystem Integration: Many organizations already have standardized scheduling tools or enterprise-wide scheduling solutions. Integrating IICS tasks with these tools allows for better synergy within the broader ecosystem of IT operations.

The solution: Automation by Broadcom cloud integrations
