xyOps Workflow Automation on Ubuntu 24.04 LTS

Overview

xyOps is an open source workflow automation and server monitoring platform. You define events that say what to run, where to run it and when, then let the scheduler fire them on a timetable, on an interval, on a single shot or on demand, with concurrency limits and queueing so a burst never overwhelms a host. Every run becomes a job with a live streaming log, a progress meter, structured output data and a retention policy, and jobs can chain into one another or into a visual workflow graph with branching, fan out and fan in.

Alongside the scheduler it watches the servers themselves, collecting CPU, memory, disk and network metrics plus custom monitor plugins, raising alerts and tickets when something crosses a threshold. Stock plugins cover shell scripts, HTTP requests and container runs, and actions can send email or fire a web hook when a job starts, succeeds or fails. It suits teams who have outgrown scattered crontabs and want one place to schedule work, watch it run and be told when it breaks.

Common uses

• Replace scattered crontabs with one scheduler that shows live logs and job history
• Chain jobs and build visual workflows with branching, limits and retry actions
• Monitor server metrics and raise alerts or tickets when a threshold is crossed
