Automation Anywhere is a popular robotic process automation tool that allows users to automate repetitive business processes without programming knowledge. It uses a control room to manage bots that are created using the Bot Creator and run on Bot Runners. The architecture includes Task Bots that execute repetitive tasks, Meta Bots that are reusable across processes, and IQ Bots that can understand unstructured data using cognitive capabilities. Automation Anywhere is beneficial as it eliminates human errors, increases speeds, reduces costs, and helps scale automation from desktop to data center.

• Automation Anywhere is one of the popular RPA Tool which offers
powerful and user-friendly RPA capabilities to automate the business
processes that are performed by humans.
• AA is a web-based management system that includes a control room
to run end-to-end automated business tasks and can automate end
to end business operations.

4. Automation anywhere tool should be used because of following reasons:
•No programming knowledge is required. You can record your actions, or point and click
the action wizards.
•Eliminates the element of the human error
•Increases transaction speed and allows to save time and costs
•Quick Time to Value
•Helps you to automate data transfers and import or export data between files or
applications.
•Scale from Desktop to Data Centere.

Automation Anywhere Architecture has 3 primary components
• Control Room
• Bot Creator
• Bot Runner

Control room is a web-based platform, a central interface that controls
all the Automation Anywhere activities. In other words, it’s the
Centralized Server that manages and monitors the Bots .
• Use management
• Source control
• Dashboard
• License Management

Bot Creator is one where we create/develop and edit, integrate tasks
and load it to repository in Control Room.

The Bot Runner is the machine where you run the bot. You
can run multiple bots in parallel. The bots report back the
execution logs/pass/fail status back to the control room.

• Task Bot
The Task Bots are the core of automation which execute repetitive rule-based
tasks.
Meta bots are the automation building blocks. It is designed in such a way that with application
updates or changes you need to make minimal changes to the bot. Changes automatically
apply to any process utilizing that bot.
Meta Bots
IQ BOT
IQ bots are next-generation intelligent bots that allow developers to add cognitive
capabilities to processes. These bots use cognitive capabilities to extract information
from semi and unstructured data.
