MarqueeRules BRE Monitors

MarqueeRules BRE Monitors

Essential run time information on the BRE without
all the heavy lifting within the BRE
2

MarqueeRules Monitors

What they do? The MarqueeRules Monitors provide
you with a capability to monitor a Business Rules
Engine during runtime without the BRE having
explicit logging of any sort whatsoever.
3

MarqueeRules Monitors

What are they? These are various rules engine
monitors that work with the Fair Isaac Blaze
Advisor rules engine. They work with both the
advisor projects and the Innovator Workbench
projects. They work with both the Java
deployments as well as EJB deployments.

MarqueeRules Monitors

• Why do I need them?
• You may need them for various reasons
• You want to know what service is running
• You want to know how many service agents have
  been created
• You want to know what instance is running
• You want to know whether a certain rule within
  the service fired or not
• You want to know when it fired

5

MarqueeRules Monitors

• You want to know what happened when the rule
  fired
• You want to know what data changed when the rule
  fired
• You want to know what functions executed
• You want to know each and every step within that
  function that executed
• You want to know if a certain flow started or not
  
• You want to know what global variables got
  initialized and what value got assigned to them

6

MarqueeRules Monitors

• You want to know what task within the rule flow
  executed
• You want to know what rule-set got executed
• and you want to know a whole lot more
• You want to know exactly when all the above
  events occurred and which rule agent was
  responsible for them
• You want to know when the service finally
  finished and the agent was released

MarqueeRules Monitors

How does this all work? We evaluate the rules
engines various execution points throughout its
life continuously in real time even with multiple
services and agents running simultaneously and
capture all the relevant information using our
MarqueeRules Monitors. We present it all to the
users in a format that helps them with debugging,
QA, monitoring and audit trails.

MarqueeRules Monitors

Example The following example will give some idea
of how the tool works The BRE has the following
rules

MarqueeRules Monitors

• When the rules are run, the monitors keep an eye
  on each and every event that gets executed. The
  following slide details the reports the monitors
  generate
