Managing Jobs

A job is a container for operations that can be executed by the SQL Server Agent. Jobs can be run once or scheduled to run on a regular basis. Jobs provide the basis for SQL Server automation and allow for the execution of many different types of operations, including T-SQL, SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) packages, and operating system commands.
