How and where to deploy business rules
James Taylor can be something of an extremist in his advocacy of inference engines, but I think this post about how to deploy business rules is spot-on. The three points I particularly liked were:
- “Don’t underestimate how much change you might actually want in apparently “fixed” rules.” Rules should be managed by a flexible tool for specification, development, and/or maintenance. Relational purists sometimes advocate putting them under direct control of the DBMS; I disagree strongly.
- “An effective way to combine business rules and BPEL model-driven rules is to use decision services in conditions.”
- “Using templates to control which parts of which rules can be edited by a given group of business users is key to delivering agility.”
