  <mainDescription>&lt;p>&#xD;
    In a BRMS deployment there are at least the following components to intergrate in the core business application and in&#xD;
    the IT architecture:&#xD;
&lt;/p>&#xD;
&lt;ul>&#xD;
    &lt;li>&#xD;
        The Rule Engine as an executable class, calleable using proprietary API or JSR94 API. Rule Engine can be embedded&#xD;
        component or deployed in a pool. Java Connector Architecture can be a solution to manage a pool of Rule Engines. It&#xD;
        offers a lot of services provided by the JEE container, that an architect can leverage.&#xD;
    &lt;/li>&#xD;
    &lt;li>&#xD;
        The Rule Set(s) as script files which needs to be managed and deployed dynamically or at system startup to the rule&#xD;
        engine.&#xD;
    &lt;/li>&#xD;
    &lt;li>&#xD;
        An IDE, like a Rule Studio, to develop the core rule set.&#xD;
    &lt;/li>&#xD;
    &lt;li>&#xD;
        A Web based Rule management platform, to let business users, analysts be able to maintain the rules.&#xD;
    &lt;/li>&#xD;
    &lt;li>&#xD;
        A Rule testing framework to support functional testing of the rule set and non-regression tests.&#xD;
    &lt;/li>&#xD;
&lt;/ul></mainDescription>
