Rules Repository
The Rules Repository is powered by a relational database. When a rule is created or updated, it is stored in the Rules Repository. The transaction is logged and a call is made to Portellus' BRMS Generator component. The Generator then translates the rule into an XML file and stores it in the rule deployment directory so that the Rules Engine can be synchronized with the new or updated rule.
PRIME employs a relational database as its back-end storage medium for a number of reasons:
- Change history is maintained for versioning and audit purposes
- High Performance is ensured in a multi-user development environment
- Common IT infrastructure and technical expertise can be leveraged
- Security is enforced through roles and permission in the database
