Job scheduling model
The data model used in Juice Box has a many-to-many relationship between jobs and schedules. This is similar to products such as SQL Server Agent and offers similar benefits.[1] Furthermore, a job can consist of multiple execution steps which are performed in series, with the option of a failed step terminating the rest of the series.
The job step types offered are Command Line and Data Source.[2] The latter is a convenience for steps that need to execute database commands or operations. Both types can be used within a single job.
The job scheduling model supports traditional job scheduling requirements and does not offer workload automation features.
Requirements
Juice Box supports Windows, Linux/Unix and Mac and requires Java 1.6 or above.[3]
