Looking to modernize your applications as part of a digital business transformation initiative?
Use Agile Business Rules Extraction to do so without freezing code and putting policy changes on hold.
To ensure the success of these digital business transformation projects, you must start by understanding the policies and algorithms running in your current systems. This means identifying and understanding all of the business rules being executed also known as business rules extraction (BRE).
Agile BRE on the Intellisys platform is a business rules extraction tool that accelerates the process using automation while simultaneously mitigating risk. First, Intellisys documents the current business logic, database details, and critical dependencies using its unique AI/ML technology. Next, the same platform provides consolidation features to mine business rules from the extracted logic and structures. These rules can be exported to third party tools and platforms, migrated to modern code and microservices, or user stories can be generated for a rebuild. Most importantly, the platform allows for continuous updates to the code during the BRE process, reducing unwarranted pressure on development and keeping the functionality of the modernized application in sync with policy updates.
Explore how business rules extraction can enable a business transformation. Learn how Agile BRE streamlines these efforts and drives successful modernization initiatives across various industries.
Using the Intellisys platform, organizations can uncover and leverage business rules or policies to ensure the success of digital transformation projects, such as rebuilding systems or migrating to modern platforms or low-code environments.
Intellisys provides automation to perform “generally accepted” consolidation of code blocks.
Intellisys provides essential features, which may be applied to the automatically consolidated business logic to:
Intellisys supports business rules extraction from applications written in 20+ programming languages, for applications across various industries such as financial services, insurance, government, and manufacturing environments. If your business logic is embedded in COBOL, PL/I, RPG, PowerBuilder, Oracle Forms, Java, C, or other languages, Intellisys can automate identifying, cataloging, and exporting those rules for analysis and reuse.
Yes. Intellisys uses AI both to identify code where business rules may exist as well as to accelerate business rules extraction processes through plug-ins. The plug-ins assist with renaming cryptic variables and constants that would otherwise require manual interpretation, cataloguing rules and generating rule descriptions. Tasks that would take experienced analysts weeks to complete manually can be dramatically compressed, allowing your team to focus on validation and decision-making rather than code archaeology.
Loss of business logic is one of the highest-risk outcomes in any modernization initiative. Intellisys mitigates this by systematically identifying areas of the code most likely to contain business rules before transformation begins. Rules are cataloged, annotated, and organized into a structured library. When code updates are applied, Intellisys automatically transfers changes without impacting unaffected rules, and generates reports for any rules that are impacted, giving your team full traceability and control throughout the process.
Business logic refers broadly to all the processing and decision-making embedded in an application, including technical routines, data transformations, and process flows. Business rules are the higher overarching policies that the logic elements combine to enact. Extracting the rules from legacy code requires first identifying which segments of code represent policy decisions versus technical plumbing. Intellisys automates this identification step, then enables your team to catalog and annotate the rules in a structured, human-readable format, separating meaningful business policy from raw technical implementation.

You can store your business rules in Intellisys itself. The platform supports keeping rules synchronized as code evolves, so your rule library reflects the current state of your applications at all times rather than becoming a historical snapshot. Intellisys also supports exporting business rules in multiple formats and to third-party commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) products and modern platforms, giving you the flexibility to store rules in a dedicated business rules management system (BRMS) or business rules engine (BRE), a project management tool like JIRA or a modern off-the-shelf version of your current application.
Extracted and cataloged business rules have immediate strategic value. They can be used for regulatory audits and compliance needs for industries that have these on-going requirements. They can also support an application rationalization initiative to inform decisions about which rules to retain, retire, or consolidate, or to validate whether a modern 3rd party platform is a suitable alternative for an application that requires modernization. Additionally, Intellisys allows you to use them to accelerate the design of new systems by automatically generating user stories which provides a verified business requirements base.
