[rules-dev] drools and google app engine

[Michael Neale]

Hi Jess - I have experience with GAE - but never thought to try drools on it.

Certainly should be possible - a few little tweaks might be needed to
avoid verboten APIs. However, the main thing that "cramps its style"
is the fact that apps on GAE really should be stateless (in order to
scale) but I guess that if you can cope with a session suddenly moving
then it might work out (or just use stateless rules).

It seems like a relatively simple task to overcome this with an aspect and a weave.  But before I attempt it, I was curious if anyone had managed to get Drools running in the app engine environment?  If so, was that the only issue encountered and what was the level of effort?
