We used IBM Operations Decision Manager as a central repository to define, manage, deploy, execute and monitor business rules and decision logic. It also enabled business users to set up and modify rules for their department without depending on technical/IT teams to implement changes which resulted in better operational efficiency and outcomes.

We depend on IBM Operational Decision Manager (ODM) for a number of different applications and scenarios. A variety of applications where static/stateless rules, as well as decision tables, are required have been implemented using this technology. In addition to rule applications and decision services, there are rule sets, rulesets, and decision tables that may be created and configured by the company, and these are provided to applications via the usage of REST APIs.
