Developing Rules Applications with Red Hat JBoss BRMS (JB463)

The Developing Rules Applications with Red Hat JBoss BRMS (JB463) course is a 4-day course that is designed to teach students how to create, test, debug, and control business rules, how to generate rules packages, and how the Red Hat JBoss BRMS [business rules management system] runtime environment executes rules. During the course, students will use Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio 7 and Red Hat JBoss BRMS 6 to perform detailed, hands-on exercises that enable them to create and manage business rules in a production environment.

• Authoring basic business rules in Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio
• Authoring advanced rules
