What is meant by Bot management?
"Bot Management (RPA)" refers to the monitoring, control, and optimization of software robots used in Robotic Process Automation (RPA). These robots perform automated, rule-based tasks that were previously carried out by human users, such as data processing, form entry, or extracting information from various systems. The management of these robots encompasses all aspects of their configuration, execution, and maintenance to ensure that automated processes run smoothly and efficiently.
Typical software functions in the area of "bot management":
- Real-Time Monitoring: Live monitoring of robot activities to check their performance and status in real-time and intervene when necessary.
- Task Assignment: Assigning tasks to specific robots based on their availability and capabilities.
- Logging and Reporting: Capturing and analyzing robot activities, including error messages and success rates, to assess performance and continuously improve processes.
- Scaling Management: Managing the number of active robots based on demand to respond to peak loads and optimize resource utilization.
- Error Handling: Automated detection and handling of errors to minimize downtime and maintain operations.
- Security Management: Implementing security measures to control access to robots and ensure all actions comply with regulatory requirements.
