Overview
IBM WebSphere ILOG JRules provides functionality to build and deploy rule-based applications for Java, mainframe and SOA-based environments.

Developers can easily build and deploy rule-based applications that automate fine-grained, variable decisions used by business systems, while reducing the time, effort and cost of application development and ongoing maintenance.
- A comprehensive development environment for rule-based applications that is built on the Eclipse IDE (Rule Studio).
- Powerful functionality, including: auto correction in rule editing; conflict and redundancy detection; wizards and configuration tools for creating testing frameworks; and source code control integration.
- The ability to easily extend rule projects for ongoing management to business users through IBM WebSphere ILOG Rule Team Server.
- A robust, scalable and secure execution engine for rule-based applications, with a managed deployment and monitoring environment (Rule Execution Server).
- A complete set of execution capabilities, including: a high-performance and scalable rule engine, providing either inference or sequential-based rule execution; hot deployment of changes into production without having to restart the server; one-click deployment of rulesets as web services for SOA-based integration; monitoring through the administration web console or through JMX-based connectivity to enterprise system management tools, such as IBM Tivoli.
