Abstract:
1. A computer-readable storage medium storing computer-executable instructions for a job manager, wherein the computer-executable instructions configure a processor to: receive, from a client device, a request for information relating to a job operating on one or more operating environments of a plurality of operating environments, wherein at least two of the plurality of operating environments utilize heterogeneous job scheduling nomenclatures; identify, based on the request, a job object or alert object associated with the job, wherein the identified job object or alert object comprises a job identifier and a pointer to at least one of the plurality of operating environments, and wherein the identified job or alert object is used to obtain normalized job or alert data, wherein the normalized job or alert data is obtained by mapping a first set of indicators from a job scheduling nomenclature of a first of the at least two operating environments and a second set of indicators, at least partially different from the first set of indicators, from a job scheduling nomenclature of a second of the at least two operating environments, to a common set of indicators; determine the requested information based on at least a portion of the normalized job or alert data; and provide, or make available, the requested information to a device or user.
