Business Rules


The Business rules are as follows:

  • Oracle Business Rule follows RETE Algorithm.

  • Business rules can be used to make choices regarding routing rules. This can be done using the dynamic business rule option.

  • Oracle Business Rule Engine supports four types of facts: Java facts, XML facts, RL facts, and ADF facts.

  • Facts represent the data or business objects that can be used by rules.

  • A global variable is similar to a public static variable in Java.

  • Bucketsets define the data types of fact properties.

  • Bucketsets are used as a constraint to define a set of acceptable values for a fact or a property.

  • Links are used to link to a dictionary in the same application or in another application.

  • Decision function is a function that is configured declaratively, without using RL language programming.

  • A ruleset is a collection of one or more rules that is seen as a unit of execution.

  • The Dictionary holds facts, rules, and rulesets.
