What is xyOps?

xyOps is a next-generation operations platform that combines job scheduling, workflow automation, server monitoring, alerting, and incident response into a single, unified system. Built for modern infrastructure teams, it replaces the need to stitch together multiple tools by offering everything from visual workflow building to integrated ticketing—all under one hood. The platform is 100% free and open source under the BSD 3-Clause license, with a commitment to never change that licensing model.

Who it's for

• DevOps engineers who need to orchestrate complex workflows across fleets of servers without juggling separate scheduling, monitoring, and alerting tools.
• System administrators managing anything from five to five thousand servers, looking for a scalable solution that handles job scheduling, real-time tracking, and automated incident response.
• Platform teams building internal tools who want a developer-friendly, plugin-extensible system that integrates with existing CI/CD pipelines and supports custom scripting in any language.

Key features

Visual Workflow Builder

Chain multiple jobs with conditional logic, pass data and files between steps, and attach limiters like timeouts, memory caps, or log size caps. You can run jobs in parallel or create custom queues, all through a graphical editor that makes complex pipelines easy to design and maintain.

Flexible Job Scheduler

Target individual servers or groups, set multiple schedules per event, define blackout ranges for holidays, and import existing crontab configurations. The scheduler also supports one-time jobs and plugin-based extensions, giving you far more control than traditional cron.

Smart Alerts and Integrated Ticketing

Trigger expressions with flexible rules send email, webhook, or custom notifications—each alert includes a server snapshot. Alerts can automatically create tickets, run jobs, or even prevent new jobs from launching. The built-in ticketing system supports file attachments and API scripting, making incident response seamless.
