[KieLive#12] Business Rules and Decision Engines: past, present and future - with Edson Tirelli

Short summary: In this live-stream session we'll discuss the past, present and future of rules engines and the technologies that revolve around it

Description:

Implementing mission critical business logic might be tricky: you might have to apply an automated decision on a huge volume of data, or, maintain hundreds of thousands of business rules that keep an organization moving forward.

Understand the role that business engines have played across the years, and when it is indispensable in an architecture. In this panel with Edson Tirelli, we'll discuss the technical reasoning behind using a decision engine, and more: how these services are evolving, the emergence of open standards like DMN and the power of established business rules engines (li Drools).

Finally, we'll discuss how it aligns with the current trends in AI and Machine Learning (ML) and what is being developed to keep systems compliant with the requirements around trust and explainability, demanded by legislations being implemented in countries across the world.
