Automic Automation

What Automic Automation is

Automic Automation coordinates workloads across hybrid environments, including mainframes, cloud-native systems and microservices. Its centralized control and self-service workflows support workflow dependencies, event triggers and cross-platform execution. For service level management, the platform tracks critical paths, forecasts bottlenecks and watches workflows for risks to service level agreements.

Dedicated Agentic AI Jobs can carry out dynamic work, including remediation and data routing within Automic object definitions. The platform supports a Bring Your Own Model approach and can operate as both a Model Context Protocol client and server for external large language models. Broadcom’s Automation Marketplace has hundreds of pre-built plugins and connectors, including options for ServiceNow, Oracle, SAP, Google Cloud and AWS. SAP offerings include certifications through the SAP Integration & Certification Center and dedicated integrations for SAP BTP, SAP BOBI, SAP DI and SAP IBP.

Organizations can deploy Automic on premises, in cloud-native Kubernetes containers or through managed Automic SaaS. Broadcom says the SaaS service has feature parity with the on-premises product, receives automatic updates and needs no infrastructure management. Pricing is available on request; the AI Edition is licensed by number of nodes. Broadcom describes role-based access control, end-to-end encryption and audit trails for automated processes.

Who it suits

Automic Automation suits organizations coordinating workloads across hybrid environments, from mainframes to cloud-native systems and microservices. It is relevant to teams that need centralized workflow control, SLA monitoring, external model support or deployment choices spanning customer-managed environments and managed SaaS.

Getting started

2. Contact Broadcom for pricing.
3. Choose a customer-managed or managed SaaS deployment.

Verdict

Choose Automic Automation if your organization needs centralized orchestration across hybrid workloads, with SLA monitoring, integration options and a choice of customer-managed or SaaS deployment. Check the download changes if your workflows depend on the REST download API or Automic Package Manager; Broadcom says those routes are deprecated or will no longer install packages directly.
