Smart resource manager in unified automation platforms for robotic process automation

One or more non-transitory computer-readable storage media coupled to one or more processors and having instructions stored thereon which, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations for managing resources executing in one or more robotic process automation (RPA) platforms, the operations comprising:

• receiving process data representative of two or more processes executed by resources in a RPA platform, and resource data representative of the resources in the RPA platform;
• determining, by the one or more processors, a process rank for each of the two or more processes, respectively;
• for at least one process, calculating a number of resources required to complete the process in conformance with a service level agreement (SLA) governing the process;
• and
• transmitting instructions through a platform adapter to provision at least one additional resource to execute the process within the RPA platform, the platform adapter being specific to the RPA platform, and being one of a plurality of platform adapters.
