Cisco Tidal Enterprise Adapter for HP Operations 
Manager 

Introduction to Enterprise Scheduling and Adapters 

IT operations that focus on the automation of business processes involve integrating a wide range of custom and 

enterprise applications and the infrastructure on which they run, often with complex interdependencies. In such 

environments, IT typically uses job scheduling tools to control batch and on-demand event processing. This is vital 

to the success of a range of business operations from sales to manufacturing to financial management. 

For the past decade, Cisco

®

 Tidal Enterprise Scheduler has been defining standards for job scheduling usability, 

scalability, and breadth of coverage. The role of the many adapters available for Enterprise Scheduler is to make 

connectivity, control, and visibility of diverse technologies accessible directly through the Enterprise Scheduler user 

interface (UI). In addition, certain Cisco adapters make Enterprise Scheduler accessible through a management 

framework. Ultimately, the breadth of coverage and connectivity these adapters provide simplifies end-to-end 

scheduling of processes across the enterprise. 

Product Overview 

Consolidating Business Process Execution and Event Management Business process automation has evolved 

from managing routinely scheduled batch jobs to handling continuous mission-critical workflows that encompass 

cross-platform, cross-application processes. IT operations staff is under constant pressure to deliver highly 

complex services with constrained budgets and resources. Given this scenario, dealing with application problems 

and other infrastructure issues, managing resource availability, and monitoring the performance of important data 

center processes have become mission-critical. 

To strengthen IT’s ability to manage data center operations, Enterprise Adapter for HP Operations Manager 

extends the functionality of HP Operations Manager tools that monitor and maintain IT services. Working with the 

adapter, Enterprise Scheduler delivers complex dependency- and schedule-driven workflow status information to 

HP Operations Manager. Together, they function as one continuous events-and-workflow-management system. 

Accessed through the HP Operations Manager console, Enterprise Scheduler delivers sophisticated benefits that 

include workflow automation, uptime reliability, n-tier scalability, and advanced error notification. These increase IT 
management’s confidence in its ability to adhere to service-level agreements (SLAs).
