Book Review – Business Rules Management and Service-Oriented Architecture

August 1, 2009

Business Rules Management and Service-Oriented Architecture by Ian Graeme
This is a fairly technical look at business rules, the technology of a business rules management system and patterns of using them. The book gives a fairly quick overview of SOA and then introduces business rules, both as an approach and as a class of technology. He [...]

Predictions for 2009

December 18, 2008

I just went back to check and found no predictions on the blog for 2008 (so I get a 100% accuracy rating with no errors) so I thought I would make some for 2009. In no particular order then:

Cloud computing will impact decision management.
There are already at least two decision management vendors offering decisions in [...]

The small impact of business rules on the big players

November 21, 2008

Jim Sinur brought up an interesting point today when he blogged IBM, Microsoft, Oracle and SAP have bought Business Rule Technology. What’s up with that? The big players seem to be toying with business rules – there’s plenty of activity but not much understanding or commitment.

SAP bought Yasu but until recently did not show much [...]

Oracle buys Haley

October 29, 2008

Well after SAP bought YASU and IBM bought ILOG everyone figured Oracle had to move and they did today, buying Haley. Interestingly the announcement seemed focused more on software for government agencies than on rules as part of Oracle’s platform so perhaps there is more to come regarding rules in Fusion.
Interesting times.

Bringing a business domain to bear on decisions

May 9, 2008

Mike made an interesting comment in response to my recent post on the future of application development. He said:
Are business domain tools necessary to enable a non-trivial development role for businesspeople?
Like many good questions the answer is complicated – in a way, both yes and no. I do agree with Mike that a non-trivial role [...]

Some thoughts on Adaptive Decision Management

April 22, 2008

Paul Haley wrote an interesting piece last week on Adaptive Decision Management. This is a really good piece and I highly recommend it. I do have a couple of things to add, however.
While Paul is correct that Fair Isaac did not talk about “decision management” until after the HNC merger, Fair Isaac had a long [...]

Wonderful example of rule harvesting

Paul Haley has done an amazingly thorough job walking through a business rule harvesting example over on his blog. If this is
something you either do for a living or are considering, read the post. Where Paul finds the time to write such long, detailed posts I will never know….

More thoughts on RuleBurst and Haley

November 28, 2007

Having posted some initial thoughts on RuleBurst’s acquisition of Haley, I was lucky enough to get some time with Peter Still, VP Strategy. Peter and I spent an interesting hour discussing the merger and the combined companies plans so I thought I would share some of my thoughts.
The first interesting thing to note is that, [...]

A critical mass in natural-language rules?

November 14, 2007

Heard the news today that RuleBurst (an Australian BRMS vendor) has acquired Haley Systems (a US one). The press release makes a big point of the two companies shared focus on natural language rules and of their contrasting historical markets (Asia/Pacific and Europe v US).
I don’t have any more details beyond the publicly announced ones, [...]
