I did a Drools BOF at Javapolis, where I presented what I believe is the future 🙂 our vision on a unified and integrated business logic platform. You won’t go to separate proprietary vendors for rules, processes and cep – each with their own runtime, api and server side management/deployment; your business logic is too important to be tied into closed source proprietary frameworks. We will provide the end users with a single platform with fully integrated rules, processes and cep with a single runtime, api and server side management/deployment. I have made available the slides from the presentation here, which are at a technical level, and you’ll see this delivered in phases of 2008.
