2018: Exit of Red Hat Decision Manager 7

On February 21, 2018 the Red Hat company submitted the platform of automation of business solutions of new generation — Red Hat Decision Manager 7. It succeeded JBoss BRMS.

According to Phil Simpson (Phil Simpson), the marketing manager of Red Hat JBoss, this solution "will allow the less technically grounded business people to create modern cloud applicaions which automate decision making process".

During daily activity the company is faced from time to time the need to make fast decisions. For example, in case of insurance company it happens often: when quotations for clients form, the rate is selected or the insurance address is processed.

Much the expanded and optimized Red Hat Decision Manager 7 tools allow business users and "civil" developers to modify independently business logic of applications, releasing resources of IT specialists for the solution of other tasks. Red Hat Decision Manager allows to execute models in the DMN language (Decision Model and Notation/model of decision making and record), offers the processed tables of decision making and the editor for work with them and also the new data modeler.

The new technology is designed to simplify the description of rules of any area which define how operational decisions are made. The manager of solutions allows to use several methods of submission of rules from decision tables in style of tables for accomplishment of files, using the new DMN standard.

Thus, the organization will be able to codify rules which can be understood by all and also automate these solutions and unloading.

Decision Manager can be applied to creation of both traditional, and cloud applicaions, allows to describe logic of solutions in language of business rules and to plan deployment of microservices in corporate DPC or in the form of containerized services on a platfoma of Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform. Red Hat OpenShift allows clients to increase business value and to accelerate implementation of digital innovations for the applications, using possibilities of DevOps, such as the automated testing and continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) and also to manage them using the methods aimed at providing bigger security, scalability and interoperability.

Partners of Red Hat can use technology in several ways: from resale of the platform before implementation of technology in the user solutions for management of applications for decision making which they create for clients.

Long time the company used microservices for implementation of business rules, and closer integration with the OpenShift platform will expand possibilities of adaptation.[1]
