DecisionRules offers a modern, intuitive, and low-code alternative, designed for both business users and developers. Move at the speed of your market, create and deploy rules in minutes, not weeks, and put the power of automated decisions back into the hands of your experts.

Benefits

Simplicity And Accessibility

DecisionRules: Its core strength is a clean, visual, web-based interface. Business analysts, product managers, and other non-technical staff can build, test, and deploy complex business rules using intuitive tools like decision tables and decision trees. This dramatically reduces the dependency on IT departments and shortens the time from idea to implementation.

Drools: Requires Java expertise and developer involvement. While tools like Drools Workbench exist, the environment is fundamentally developer-oriented. Writing, managing, and understanding the rules often remains a task for engineers, creating a bottleneck for business agility.

API-First Design

DecisionRules: Is built with an API-first philosophy. It can be integrated into any application using simple REST API calls, regardless of the programming language (Python, JavaScript, .NET, etc.). This makes it a perfect fit for modern microservices architectures where different services are built with different technologies.

Drools: Is deeply integrated with the Java ecosystem. While it can be exposed as a service, its native environment is Java, making integration with other technology stacks more complex and less natural.

Drools Migration Benefits

Flexible Deployment

DecisionRules: Offers versatile deployment options. You can use fully managed public cloud (SaaS), deploy to a private cloud, or run it on-premise. This flexibility allows businesses to choose the model that best fits their security, scalability, and operational needs without worrying about server maintenance.

Drools: Is traditionally an on-premise solution. While it can be containerized and deployed to the cloud, it wasn't originally designed for it. This can lead to more complex setup, management, and scaling in a cloud environment.

Rule and Flow Management

DecisionRules: Provides a clear, built-in visual modeler for creating rule flows. This allows users to easily chain different rules and decision tables together to model a complete business process. Features like versioning, debugging tools, and an AI assistant further simplify the management lifecycle.

Drools: Lacks an explicit, user-friendly rule flow modeler. Users often have to manage the order of rule execution through attributes like "salience" or use a more complex BPMN process modeler, which is less intuitive for simple decision flows.
