Job scheduling and batch processing are related concepts often used in IT environments.
Job scheduling refers to the process of automating task, or “job,” execution in a specific sequence or under certain conditions. This can involve running data backups, generating reports or processing transactions. Modern job scheduling solutions are more powerful than simple task schedulers, as they manage dependencies between jobs, assign resources efficiently and optimize overall performance.
Batch processing is executing a series of automated, non-interactive jobs all at once (in a “batch”). It’s typically used to handle large volumes of data or repetitive tasks like processing payroll, updating records in a database or analyzing log files. Batch processing is efficient for tasks that don’t need human interaction and can be processed together.
The difference lies in the nature of task execution and objectives: Job scheduling is about controlling when and how jobs run, while batch processing is more focused on performing grouped tasks efficiently, often at times when system resources are more readily available.

Yes, it’s possible to automate batch jobs using workload automation tools. In fact, automation is a key benefit of batch processing.
Batch jobs can be submitted to a batch processing system manually or they can be scheduled to run automatically at specific times or under certain conditions. Once submitted, the system will execute jobs in the order in which they’re received and will continue to process subsequent jobs until the queue is empty.
Automating batch jobs with enterprise job scheduling software has several advantages:
