Aletyx Enterprise Build of Kogito and Drools Components¶
The Aletyx Enterprise Build of Kogito and Drools ecosystem provides a comprehensive platform for business automation, combining several powerful components:
Decision Model and Notation (DMN)¶
DMN is a standard for business decision modeling that provides a common notation readable by both business and technical users. Our DMN section guides you through creating, testing, and deploying decision models using the Aletyx Studio and other tools.
With DMN, you can:
- Create visual decision models with decision requirements diagrams
- Define decision logic through decision tables, expressions, and business knowledge models
- Test and validate decisions with real-time feedback
- Deploy decision services in cloud-native environments
Drools Rule Language (DRL)¶
Drools is the leading brand of Aletyx Enterprise Build of Kogito and Drools, offering a powerful rule engine with:
- The Phreak Algorithm for efficient pattern matching
- Forward and backward chaining capabilities
- Rule Units for modular rule organization
- Executable models for optimized performance
Our DRL tutorials take you from writing your first rule to implementing complex business logic with advanced pattern matching and constraints.
Business Process Management (BPMN)¶
The Aletyx Enterprise Build of Kogito and Drools provides a jBPM and Kogito powered process engines providing robust support for:
