BMC Control-M

Control-M for the Modern Data Stack

Snowflake, Databricks, and dbt are exceptional platforms for building data pipelines. Control-M is the enterprise orchestration and governance layer that makes those pipelines reliable in production: enforcing SLAs, managing cross-system dependencies, and connecting the data stack to ERP systems, file transfers, AI workloads, and downstream consumers.

Platform Integrations

How Control-M Connects to Your Stack

Snowflake

Execute SQL statements, stored procedures, and Snowpark Python scripts as Control-M jobs. Trigger Dynamic Table refreshes and Snowflake Tasks as governed workflow steps. Manage Snowflake Cortex AI functions as part of the same pipeline as your data loads.

Databricks

Run notebooks, JARs, Python scripts, and Delta Live Tables pipelines as Control-M jobs. Orchestrate multi-task Databricks Workflow runs with enterprise SLA management and cross-system dependency visibility above the Databricks layer.

dbt

Trigger dbt Cloud runs and dbt Core CLI executions as Control-M workflow steps. Chain dbt model runs with upstream Snowflake/Databricks loads and downstream BI dashboard refreshes, with SLA alerting if the model doesn't finish on time.

Apache Airflow

Control-M integrates natively with Airflow, Airflow DAGs participate in broader enterprise workflows without migration. Control-M provides SLA governance and cross-system dependency management above the Airflow layer.

Why VPMA

VPMA has been implementing Control-M and Snowflake integrations since 2018, one of the earliest adopters in the BMC partner ecosystem. Our data solution architects have designed modern data platforms spanning Databricks, Snowflake, and dbt for customers across Financial Services, Healthcare, and Higher Education.
