xyOps

xyOps is a next-generation, open source workflow automation and infrastructure orchestration platform that completely transforms how developers and operations teams manage their entire stack! It combines job scheduling, workflow automation, server monitoring, alerting, and incident response into one cohesive, unified system. Say goodbye to juggling a dozen different tools and hello to total control from a single pane of glass!

Built for developers and ops teams who demand freedom and transparency, xyOps never hides features behind paywalls and never pushes telemetry back to anyone. You own your data, you control your automation, and you get full visibility into everything happening across your infrastructure. Whether you have five servers or five thousand, xyOps scales effortlessly to meet your needs.

The platform is 100% free and open source under the BSD 3-Clause license, meaning you can deploy it anywhere, modify it however you like, and never worry about license changes or feature restrictions. From visual workflow builders to flexible job schedulers, smart alerting systems to integrated ticketing, xyOps delivers enterprise-grade capabilities without the enterprise price tag or vendor lock-in. Setup takes minutes, and you will immediately gain superpowers for managing your entire fleet!

Visual Workflow Builder

Chain multiple jobs together with conditional logic, pass data and even files between workflow steps, and assign actions to events like notifications or webhooks. Attach limiters such as timeouts, memory caps, and log size caps to keep everything under control. Run jobs in parallel or create custom queues that perfectly match your operational needs. This graphical editor makes complex pipeline creation intuitive and powerful!

Flexible Job Scheduler

xyOps brings superpowers to job scheduling that go way beyond traditional cron! Target individual servers or entire groups, set multiple schedules per event, and define blackout ranges for holidays or planned downtime. Import existing crontab configurations seamlessly, schedule one-time jobs for single-shot execution, and extend scheduling capabilities with plugin-based extensions. Your scheduling has never been this flexible!

Smart Alerting System

Get notified the moment something goes wrong with rich, fully customizable alerts that include complete server snapshots. Trigger expressions support complex rules, and notifications can be delivered via email, webhook, or custom channels. Alerts can automatically create tickets or trigger remediation jobs, and active alerts can even prevent new jobs from launching when conditions are critical. This is alerting that actually helps you respond!

Server Monitoring and Active Job Tracking

Monitor every aspect of your infrastructure with server and group-level dashboards, plus custom monitors and alerts for CPU, memory, network, disk, and log tracking. Run any number of jobs in parallel with optional max parallel limits and queuing. Get real-time progress updates with time remaining, enforce CPU and memory limits per job, and allow your jobs to emit their own progress and stats. Historical performance graphs from hourly to yearly give you complete visibility!

Automated CI/CD Pipeline Orchestration

Connect your code repositories, build systems, and deployment targets into automated pipelines using the visual workflow builder. When code is pushed, xyOps can automatically trigger builds, run tests, perform deployments, and monitor the results. Failed jobs can create tickets for immediate investigation, and success can trigger notifications to your team via Slack, Discord, or email. This eliminates manual handoffs and accelerates your delivery cycle!

Server Fleet Management and Monitoring

Manage thousands of servers from a single dashboard with group-level monitoring, custom metrics collection, and automated alerting. Define monitors for CPU usage, memory consumption, disk space, and network traffic across your entire fleet. When thresholds are breached, xyOps can automatically run remediation jobs, create incident tickets, or notify your on-call team. Group servers manually or automatically based on hostname for effortless organization!

Incident Response and Ticketing Automation

Transform how your team handles incidents with the built-in ticketing system that integrates directly with alerts and failed jobs. When a critical alert fires, xyOps can automatically create a ticket, attach server snapshots and logs, and trigger remediation workflows. Tickets can run jobs for CI/CD systems, attach relevant files, and are fully scriptable via API. This closes the loop between detection and resolution faster than ever!

Scheduled Data Processing and ETL Workflows

Build complex data processing pipelines that run on precise schedules across your infrastructure. Use the visual workflow builder to chain extraction, transformation, and loading steps with conditional logic and error handling. Pass data and files between steps, enforce memory and time limits, and monitor progress in real time. Blackout ranges prevent processing during maintenance windows, and parallel execution accelerates throughput for large datasets!

What is xyOps and who is it for?

xyOps is a next-generation workflow automation and infrastructure orchestration platform designed for developers and operations teams.

Professional and enterprise support plans are available separately, but the core product remains completely free!

How does xyOps handle scalability and redundancy?

xyOps is built to scale from five servers to thousands with ease! You can run multiple hot backup instances that take over immediately on power loss without interrupting any running jobs. The platform scales to thousands of worker servers in your cluster, supports both manual and automatic server grouping based on hostname, and includes easy agent installation for macOS, Linux, and Windows. Your infrastructure grows, and xyOps grows right alongside it!

What kind of plugins and integrations does xyOps support?

xyOps features a powerful Plugin API that uses simple JSON over STDIO, meaning you can write plugins in any programming language without needing an SDK! Plugin types include Event, Action, Monitor, and Trigger. The Plugin Marketplace offers a growing library of ready-made plugins, including official and community contributions for Atlassian, AWS S3, Bluesky, Cloudinary, Discord, GitHub, Google Sheets, Linear, Mastodon, Notion, OpenAI, Pushover, Replicate, Slack, Telegram, and Twilio. You can even add MCP servers as plugins!
