AppWorx Scalability Handles IT Complexity and Manages Peak Enterprise Demands; Process Automation Software Achieves New Daily Workload Benchmark.


BELLEVUE, Wash. -- AppWorx Corporation, a leading provider of application process automation software for the enterprise, today announced that its flagship product A primary product of a company, which is typically why the company was founded and/or what made it well known. For example, MS-DOS, Windows and the Microsoft Office suite have been flagship products of Microsoft. CorelDRAW is a flagship product of Corel Corporation.  has achieved a new benchmark for tasks processed and managed in a 24-hour period.

AppWorx successfully launched, tracked and reported outcome of more than 800,000 processes during the 24-hour test period. The benchmark study was conducted on a two processor Linux 3.x platform that contained an AppWorx Master and Agent as well as the Oracle Database that AppWorx uses to store object definitions, scheduling information and job outcomes.

"AppWorx is known for its ability to meet the needs of the growing enterprise," said Brian Miller

Dallas-based ClubCorp, the world leader in delivering premier golf, private club and resort experiences, has grown its AppWorx deployment from four agents at its headquarters to more than 200 agents at numerous remote locations -- controlling all agents with a single AppWorx Master. This central view of processing allows ClubCorp to monitor and control applications and process steps in their IT landscape better than native job schedulers or scripted solutions would have allowed.

"AppWorx rapidly scaled to meet our processing requirements, and we continue to add agents," said Robert Ayala, manager of production services at ClubCorp.

He was born in Pendleton, Oregon, and studied at the University of Washington. , ClubCorp's manager of computer operations, adds, "We manage a very complex IT environment and AppWorx gives our business processes the flexibility and visibility we need to operate efficiently."

A well-known music distribution company has reported peak production workloads of more than 200,000 jobs per hour with AppWorx, and a large e-commerce site uses the software to process more than 100,000 jobs per day -- launching and monitoring jobs, automating manual inputs by retrieving dynamic parameters from production data, and invoking automatic recovery routines if processing errors occur.

End-users also benefit from AppWorx scalability. A top ice cream manufacturer connects more than 300 end-users to a single AppWorx Master, with up to 100 concurrent users requesting ad hoc For this purpose.

"To be competitive, an enterprise needs a scalable tool to automate and integrate critical business processes," said Miller. "AppWorx has been providing flexible process automation solutions since 1990, and this benchmark test highlights our ability to scale to meet the most rigorous enterprise processing demands."
