Course Summary

Business rules can help a business by providing a level of agility and flexibility. A developer is responsible for implementing these business rules effectively; however, implementing them systematically can often be difficult due to their complexity. This course makes the process of implementing these rules quicker and less complex.

This course covers dynamic rules, the event model, and high performance indexing. It will help the student set up the JBoss Rules platform and start creating their own business rules.

Starting with an introduction to the basic syntax that is essential for writing rules, the course will guide the student through validation and human-readable rules that define, maintain, and support business agility. Developers are expected to represent policies, procedures and. constraints regarding how an enterprise conducts its business; this course makes it easier by showing how it can be done.

Students learn how to author, test, debug, and control business rules in a production environment. In addition, they will generate rules packages and learn how the BRMS runtime environment executes rules. The principles in this course apply equally to customers implementing a standalone BRMS solution.
