A RuleFlow simply makes sure your rules are evaluated in a specific order. Both
strategies are possible, but I believe there are some small differences:
- If you first insert all your debts and then activate the ruleflow, all orders will
progress through the ruleflow at the same time (e.g. first apply all rules of set1 and
then set2). If you would use separate ruleflows per debt, each debt can be handled
independently.
- It will sometimes be harder to identify one specific debt if you insert all your debts
at once
I think using a separate ruleflow for each of the orders would be the best solution here,
as each debt can and will be handled independently (you could have multiple working
memories working in parallel to handle the load).
If you want to make sure only one rule gets activated in a specific ruleflow group, you
can, as already stated earlier, use an activation group. This will make sure only one of
the rules in that activation group will be executed for that debt. You could also
manually deactivate the ruleflow-group in the rule consequence (using
drools.getWorkingMemory().getAgenda().deactivateRuleFlowGroup("name")), but I
would suggest using activation groups if possible (as they are more powerful and built for
these kinds of things specifically).

Subject: [rules-users] Ruleflows
Hi,
I have to compute the gravity of a debt according to a set of rules organized in a
ruleflow. I will have to process about ten thousands debts every minute.
There is no dependency between the debts. All the rules are applied to one debt.
What is the best strategy?
- Insert all the debts, and start the ruleflow process
or
- (Insert one debt, start the ruleflow process) for each debt
Another question:
If a rule "r1" in the ruleflow group "rfg1" is fired on a debt
"d1", can a second rule "r2" in the same ruleflow group be fired on
the same debt "d1"?
