Overview
Oracle Scheduler, a feature embedded in Oracle Database, facilitates the automation of a variety of tasks, jobs, and processes within the database environment. Users can schedule and oversee the execution of jobs, programs, and scripts at specified intervals or in response to events. The Universal Task in Stonebranch enables users to directly schedule, trigger, monitor, and orchestrate jobs and job chains within the Oracle Scheduler through the Python module cx_Oracle in Universal Controller. Additionally, it allows the establishment of dependencies among different Oracle jobs or job chains, as well as connections with processes in other applications or platforms through UAC workflows. This integration permits Oracle Scheduler jobs to be triggered from UAC, either through time-based or event-based mechanisms.
