YASU Technologies is a privately-held company based in Hyderabad, India, with sales offices in USA. Founded in 1999 with no venture capital funding, YASU launched the first version of QuickRules BRMS (Business Rules Management System). It’s really neat to see an Indian Company in this space.

I have worked with many Consultants that are specialized in BRMS products but none of them seem to have an idea about the product by YASU technologies. YASU Technologies is a well-kept secret in the business rules market. An Indian firm, YASU has quietly built comprehensive rules platforms based on Rete for both Java/J2EE and .NET. The major advantage of the BRMS product is that it’s well integrated with the Java/J2EE environments (.NET as well) and the builder is eclipse based. I have worked with BLAZE before however the builder is not eclipse based. Here is an overview of the product and it’s advantages.

Rule Capture
The QuickRules Builder provides features required for performing the tasks involved in capturing (defining and authoring) business rules from requirements documents - so far none of the BRMS products had such a feature.

Rule Implementation
Import Java classes or XSD documents (XSD - SDO based SOA applications could easily integrate with YASU) into the rules project.
Use already imported Java classes / XSD Elements in business rules.
Create executable units for business rules.
Author business rules; create and manage complex rule execution sequences diagrammatically. (like Rule flows )
Chain rules to meet complex rule requirements.
Add context-specific metadata to business rules.

Rule Deployment
The QuickRules Builder allows exporting business rules to databases for secure storage:

Rule Governance
The QuickRules WebEditor provides the features required for performing the tasks involved in managing change
Add/edit/delete business rules at runtime.
Add/edit/delete rulesets at runtime.
Add/delete business objects at runtime.

To conclude, I was really impressed by the fact that the product could be well integrated with XSD (SDO). It has well positioned itself in a SOA based architecture.
