It all depends on how often those rules will change and how often you will add new ones.
It is also important to understand if the business users wants to see the rules and understand what is going on, or everything will be hidden? 

From the maintainance point of view, the rules can help you out if the logic chances periodically.

Hi,

   We have 200 odd rules to be configured and wanted to know if drools can
be the optimum solutions. The rules are broadly classified into 2 categories

      example 1 :  We need to compare invoice no value in 10 documents and
if it matches perform A if it does not match perform B
                          The catch is the 10 different document may not
have the same Keyword i.e. Invoice no, instead it can Bill no, Invoice
number, Bill #, Inv etc.

      example 2 :  Search for Key word like Ferrari, BMW , if found need to
check if the individual is Authorized agent.

            Question : Can the above be implement using Drools, second is it
worth the effort or just code if else in Java and get it done.

          Thanks in advance.

Regards
Nitin
