Imagine you have some streaming data. It could be from an Internet of Things (IoT) sensor, log data ingestion, or even shopper impression data. Regardless of the source, you have been tasked with acting on the data—alerting or triggering when something occurs. Martin Fowler says: “You can build a simple rules engine yourself. All you need is to create a bunch of objects with conditions and actions, store them in a collection, and run through them to evaluate the conditions and execute the actions.” A business rules engine (or simply rules engine) is a software system that executes many rules based on some input to determine some output. Simplistically, it’s a lot of “if…
