"To understand what a cross-platform tool can do for workload scheduling, think in terms of the challenges an air traffic controller faces. Imagine a controller who is trying to direct flights to different terminals but can only see the schedule of one airline and one terminal—Terminal A. So, if conditions change and it’s no longer practical for the controller to direct flights to Terminal A, the logical approach would be to have the planes land at another terminal. But without visibility into the traffic at Terminals B, C, and D, the options are limited. The planes might have to keep flying in circles until it’s safe to land. Planes that need to take off from Terminal A may be delayed on the ground. This lack of visibility impacts the flight schedule, costs, and, perhaps most important, customer satisfaction.
When you apply that same analogy to managing workloads in your business, it’s easy to see why having an enterprisewide view of the different jobs that are scheduled and how they work together is essential for meeting business needs"
