    As an open source rule engine and product suite, Drools is well suited for the small and middle scale business to manage and integrate the rules to build the rule-driven system which can process the business-critical data and events to produce the automated decision. It is better to use Drools in the well-secured environment (back-end behind the DMZ), not putting it on the customer-facing front or exposing it directly the to public where may bring direct security risk in the enterprise environment. Drools still needs a lot hardening on the security side.

    Cons
    Open Source
    • Fusion doesn't support persistence of working memory, which brings some extra high availability risk to our business.
    • Guvnor still has a lot room to be implemented, it is not so user-friendly for non-technical people, so a lot of business users complain it is hard to master.
    • Rule execution server doesn't even have JMX implemented, hard to be monitored.
    • Drools is still lacking support for key Web services standards.

    Return on Investment
    Open Source
    • The IT department quickly adopted Drools as it is a very good java-based rule engine, which saves a lot of time to meet the project timeline and balanced our business requirements.
    • Recently we start considering the OpenRules, which may be more business user-friendly.
