Comment We need Open Source AutoSys replacement (Score 1) 37
I've had the same need - a previous posted mentioned AutoSys, which for all of its ugly faults gave my last employer a very robust job scheduling platform that I found very reliable.
I've been looking (waiting?) for an open source equivalent. What we really need is something like Condor and Globus, ala the NSF Cluster Toolkit, with a cron interface (cluster-centric solutions have great features like redirection of STDOUT and STDERR, but don't have the ability to schedule a job for later execution.) Java Workflow systems have the kind of business logic you would want, but lack the cross-platform job execution and STDOUT redirection needed. Good luck finding something.
