Products

Three products covering the three stages of an automated workload - scheduling, execution and output.

Each works alone. Together they hold the whole of an automated workload, from the condition that starts it to the page that comes out.

Schedule it

Xi-Batch

Job scheduling and workload control for Unix and Linux. Dependencies that span hosts, time and date scheduling with real calendars, file monitoring, load levelling, and a live queue your operators can see and act on.

In production since 1990.

About Xi-Batch

Run it

Xi-Exec

Controlled remote script execution. Named, pre-approved scripts dispatched to remote hosts over mutual TLS, with centralised access control, a structured audit log and a REST API. No shell access exposed.

Available now.

About Xi-Exec

Deliver it

Xi-Text

Production print spooling and output management. Route by form type, pool printers automatically, restart interrupted jobs at the point of failure, and see every printer and job across the network on one screen.

In production since 1984.

About Xi-Text

The three products across one operational cycle. Work enters Xi-Batch, which schedules it; Xi-Exec runs it across the estate without shell accounts; Xi-Text delivers the output as statements, reports and files. Completion status sets the next condition.
The overnight cycle, as an example. One schedule, one audit trail, one place to look.

Common to all three

Ownership

On your own infrastructure

These run on your servers. There is no hosted service and no dependency on ours.

Licensing

Perpetual, tiered by processor class

You buy it once. Moving between platforms within a processor class carries no additional licence fee.

Footprint

Light

Event-driven, with no relational database to install, license or maintain. No kernel modification.

Compatibility

Stable by policy

On-disk formats, network protocols, command-line flags and exit codes are treated as a contract with the customers who have built integrations around them.

Commercial

One supplier, one support contract

For all three stages, from the same small team of Unix and Linux engineers.
