Putting You in Control
|
 |
OpenJaw's XML Rules Engine, xRules, puts business experts in charge of
business decisions. xRules is a powerful rules management solution used
to design, develop, execute, and maintain business rules for XML applications.
|
|
It provides a comprehensive
easy-to-use business rules editor that enables non-technical staff to easily
add and remove business rules. This allows them to quickly react to changing
market requirements. Unlike traditional rules engines, the xRules Runtime
Engine is designed specifically for use in high throughput XML messaging
systems, compiling rules into native Java executable code for exceptional
performance.
Rules Editor
The rules editor allows non-technical
business experts to build rules using a simple point-and-click 'pseudo English'
interface. These are then dynamically applied to the running system.
|
 |
Data Identification
The XML message is represented as a tree-structure, built from the XML Schema or DTD
(Data Type Definition). The user identifies data elements, which may be of interest when building
rules, and assigns them a descriptive name.
|
|
Rule Building
The Rule Building screen allows design and management of rules using an easy
point-and-click interface. The message elements and sections identified at the
'Data Identification' stage are presented to the user along with:
- Operators (AND, OR, 'is greater than', 'multiplied by' etc.)
- Rule management functions ('New Rule', 'Clear Rule' etc.)
- Links to external data sources.
- Custom rules using java functions.
|
|
|
Rules are built by clicking the appropriate display items to build the rule syntax in the editor screen. The process is intuitive and typically takes minutes for a new user to learn.
Through this interface, the user can also enable, disable or delete existing rules and deploy the rule updates to the running system.
|
Rules Runtime
Configured Rules are deployed to the running system by compiling the rule into java bytecode.
The xRules Runtime Engine automatically detects rule changes and immediately loads the changed
rules. This provides for an instantaneous response to rules updates.
