[rules-users] Storing and loading rules in database

I am trying to develop an application where users can specify rules at a front end and the rule engine would execute in the backend. The users will work with a pre-defined set of objects and actions they can take on the objects. I could use a BRMS such as Guvnor but I found the GUI lacking and not friendly enough for the non-technical end users I am supporting. I will instead write a front end for user input, which is stored in the DB, and the backend will pull data and generate a .drl file each time it's run. I have found an old article on loading rules in and out of a DB dynamically, at http://docs.codehaus.org/display/DROOLS/Loading+and+managing+rules+dynami... http://docs.codehaus.org/display/DROOLS/Loading+and+managing+rules+dynami... , which seems to fit my need. I am looking for feedbacks on users who have tried this approach. How flexible is it? My main concerns is that future versions of Drools might break a lot of things and require a lot of recoding. To me it seems like a reasonable approach. -- View this message in context: http://drools-java-rules-engine.46999.n3.nabble.com/Storing-and-loading-r...
