The Highlights at a Glance
Architecture
The architecture and internal structure of a software product have a decisive impact on the quality of a system.
Proven industry standards (Java, JDBC, SQL, RDBMS, TCP/IP, C, HTTP/HTTPS, SSL/TLS, etc.) form the reliable
foundation for our BICsuite and schedulix Workload Automation Platforms.

Usability
The uniform front end allows complete operation of the system for administration, design, monitoring and
operations across systems with a standard browser.
Learn more
Dynamics
BICsuite and schedulix dynamically calculates which processes are to be executed, taking into account all constraints
(priorities, resource availability, etc.). Because all processes are started as soon as possible, an optimal
throughput of all systems is guaranteed.
Learn more
Integration
All functions of the BICsuite and schedulix Workload Automation Systems are operated via an open and fully
documented API. Unrestricted control from any third-party system is possible at any time.
Learn more
Concepts
With a manageable number of simple, clearly understandable concepts such as exit states, batch and job
hierarchies, dependencies, resources and triggers in a hierarchically structured runtime environment, all
functional requirements for IT process automation can be met in BICsuite and schedulix.
Learn more
Scalability
With different editions of BICsuite (BASIC, PROFESSIONAL and ENTERPRISE) as well as schedulix (Open Source) and with
maintenance and support options based on the real benefit for the user, our workload automation systems can be used
profitably in all project sizes and phases.
Learn more
Performance
Low system load due to the Workload Automation Platform itself and short response times during operation were
taken into account from the very beginning as a design goal of BICsuite and when building the server
infrastructure, ensuring optimal performance.
Learn more
Stability
The restart of all components of BICsuite and schedulix is guaranteed at any time without manual intervention
after a hardware or power failure, operating system crash or other problems – assuming the data security of the
RDBMS used.
Learn more
Security
BICsuite and schedulix ensure the highest level of security. All components (users, job server agents and user processes)
must authenticate themselves to the system. System privileges allow the targeted delegation of administration
tasks without granting full administrator rights. The traceability of all operator interventions is ensured at
all times by an audit trail.
Learn more
Completeness
Completeness of functions is absolutely crucial for a Workload Automation System, because if any lacking functions have to be
implemented by the user in the managed processes, this will lead to a loss of transparency and flexibility and
result in greater susceptibility to errors.
