WebSphere ILOG Rule Team Server supports full bi-directional importing and exporting of ruledocs, so rules can be maintained offline and then managed inside the BRMS rule repository.
Change with confidence
WebSphere ILOG Decision Validation Services, a new component, brings powerful new capabilities for rule governance. Business users can test accuracy and simulate business impacts to verify rule changes and deliver the intended results, all directly within Rule Team Servers collaborative, centralized rule management environment. Technical users can quickly set up testing and simulate scenarios using Decision Validation Services customization project editors and wizards for Rule Studio to define data input and output, key performance indicators (KPIs), and outputs that will appear in Rule Team Server.
Decision Validation Services also brings a new functionality to the Rule Execution Server with the addition of the Decision Warehouse, providing query and report capabilities for the rule execution audit trail.
Deploy with confidence
Business rules can be easily deployed as cross-platform decision services or they can run within the widest range of operating environments for distributed and mainframe systems. Moreover, rules can be compiled for use in legacy COBOL applications. Take advantage of IBM WebSphere ILOG Rules for COBOL 7.0, which adds optimized code generation for rule flows and decision tables, along with additional methods for handling numeric computations in COBOL copybooks.
