IBM® IMS™ users who want to implement business rules are frequently constrained by business rules logic that is embedded in their IMS COBOL and Java™ application code. Locating and changing the code can also be prohibitively expensive. Business analysts who have responsibility for defining business rules are challenged with tooling that requires skills as IT experts or computer programmers to define a business rule. Yet it’s the business analysts who need to view, modify and test business rules. With most businesses keen on shortening time-to-market, rules management is catching on in a big way.

Join us for this complimentary teleconference and learn how IBM Operational Decision Management (ODM) brings agility to IMS Java and COBOL applications, allowing fast changes to business rules and providing real-time response to important business events. Rules can be defined in business terms in the local language, by the business analyst. You’ll come away from this teleconference with a good understanding of how to rewrite business rules.

Join us after the teleconference for a live question-and-answer session. The teleconference will also be available for replay after the event.
