Principles of the Business Rules Approach

Front Cover

Addison-Wesley Professional, 2003 - Computers - 372 pages
-- Business Rules are an innovative, powerful approach that offers a fundamental competitive edge to a business.

-- Business Rules allow an IT department to be used more effectively in solving business problems.

-- Business Rules are particularly well suited to be used in conjunction with Web services.

The idea of Business Rules has been around for a while. Simply put, a Business Rule is a statement that defines or constrains some aspect of the business. In practice they are meant to reduce or eliminate the delays, waste, and frustration associated with the IT department having to be involved with almost every action affecting an organization's information systems. The advent of Web services has created renewed interest in them. There are now several well established rules-based products that have demonstrated the effectiveness of their use. But until now there has not been a definitive guide to Business Rules. Ron Ross, considered to be the father of Business Rules, will help organizations apply this powerful solution to their own computer system problems. This book is intended to be the first book that anyone from an IT manager to a business manager will read to understand what Business Rules are and what how they can be applied to their own situation.

User Review  - Mike - Goodreads

Another of the three pillars. Not as comprehensive as Von Halle. Touches different topics. Well worth reading all three. Read full review
