== The Cloud Business Rule Management (BRM) Services Trend ==
Business rules are actionable elements of business policy; they are implicit and explicit business directives that define and describe guidance for taking a business action. Externalizing policies and rules creates a need to manage them as an important business resource, and business rule management has emerged as a structured discipline guiding business rule definition, categorization, governance, deployment and use throughout the business life cycle.

BRM is supported and enabled in this need to manage rules as an important business resource by two technology types:
#Business Rule Engine (BRE); and
#BRM System (BRMS).

A BRE is a core software that executes business rules that have been segregated from the rest of the application logic, matching a collection of rules (the rule set) against a set of given conditions to determine which rules apply. A BRMS is a comprehensive suite — built around a BRE - that facilitates the creation, registration, classification, verification, deployment and execution of business rules. BRMS products constitute a modern incarnation of BRE products.

A critical distinction between a traditional BRE and a BRMS is that a BRMS incorporates support for seven capabilities: Execution engine (the BRE), Repository, Integrated development environment Rule model simulation, Monitoring and analysis Management and administration Rule templates. When BRMS or BRE functionality is provided as a core capability hosted in a cloud, it is called "cloud BRM services." Cloud BRM services are a type of platform as a service (PaaS).

Cloud BRM services can be obtained either as a separate offering or as a feature of a business process management PaaS. The primary business impact of cloud BRM services will derive from the business impact of BRM proper; cloud BRM services are just an alternative delivery vehicle for a concept (BRM) that can increase quality decision making when properly understood.

Even though BRM concepts have been prevalent in certain industries (for example, financial services) and in well-documented processes (for example, underwriting), there is no inherent limit to BRM's industry and process reach. Therefore, cloud BRM services have a similar potential reach, with the emphasis on "potential."
