Datastage scheduler Vs Third party scheduler

Datastage scheduler:

1)By using Datastage Director we scan schedule only the Datastage Jobs

2)The main drawback of Datastage scheduler is not possible to schedule other components like unix scripts,sql scripts,Informatica Jobs etc.In any  project dependency exists in all these components.In such scenarios you require an explicit scheduling tool

Third party scheduler:

1)TWS, Autosys, Control-M are etc popular schedulers available in market


2)By using Third party schedular we can schedule unix scripts,sql scripts,Informatica Jobs etc all the components.Assume a scenario when your project executes multiple type of components on different machines including UNIX machine, Windows Machine etc.Each schedular has  own features like e-mail notification which is not present in Datastage schedular
