Concurrently modernize and update applications with Agile Business Rules Extraction
Looking to implement your applications in a modern platform or re-write them? Intellisys' Agile Business Rules Extraction Solution allows you to do so without freezing code and putting policy changes on hold.

To ensure success when transporting an application to a commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) product or re-writing it, you must be assured of retaining all required functionality from that application. This means identifying and understanding all of the business rules being executed in it. However, business rules extraction (BRE) projects have traditionally been challenging due to the complex nature of legacy code, the lack of current documentation, and the inability to incorporate policy updates to the code during the project.

The Intellisys platform tackles these challenges with its Agile BRE solution. First, Intellisys documents the current business logic, database details, and critical dependencies. Next, the same platform provides consolidation features to mine business rules from the extracted logic and structures. Most importantly, it 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.

Automated consolidation of business logic in preparation for rules extraction

Intellisys provides automation to perform “generally accepted” consolidation of code blocks. This includes:

 

Deactivation of reported and verified dead code.

Deactivation of code blocks that are specific for the source environment only.

Renaming of cryptic variables and constants for clearer understanding and better readability of the final set of rules.

Bringing together disjointed code.

The resulting code serves as the foundation on which the advanced rules extraction features of Intellisys can be applied.

 

Advanced business rules extraction features

Intellisys provides essential features, which may be applied to the automatically consolidated business logic to:

Identify areas of the code that are likely to contain business rules.

Consolidate the logic further into rules and processes at a granular level, but without the “dead weight” of unwanted statements.

Assimilate individual rules through multiple levels of cataloging to define specific functionality or rule types.

Annotate rules in plain English to facilitate understanding by both technical and management personnel.

Export finalized rules in multiple formats for consumption by modern-day programmers and COTS products – business rule engines, business process management (BPM) tools and business rule management systems (BRMS).
