BI智能架构(pdf4)英文版

资料简介：Business rules are not new to enterprises; however, they have been frozen in a state that requires deep
and complex "system surgery" to change them. Business change has been a constant companion of
systems development since the inception of IT, but a growing number of factors has led to the increase of
change necessary to remain competitive in business. This increase in the frequency of change is leading
to new approaches to alter the business rules embedded in business process flows, applications and
even in the enterprise architecture.
Enterprises are more pressed to become adaptable and apply the knowledge captured in rule sets to
outflank competitors and respond to changing business environments. Business users want to change
rules without going through a long-running change process that is, at best, measured in days and, at
worst, measured in weeks and months. We expect response times to be reduced to hours as enterprises
move toward "zero time to market." This is accomplished by pushing rules "outboard" and allowing
business users to control critical business rules, generally through a business rule engine (BRE) — see
related research on BREs in "Rule Technologies Are Starting to Do Just That: Rule," COM-15-1648 and
"The 2002 Business Rule Engine Market Magic Quadrant," M-15-2087.
