OpenL Tablets
OpenL Tablets is an open-source business rules management system (BRMS) that allows developers to define, manage, and execute business rules in a tabular format using Excel or web-based interfaces. It enables the separation of business logic from application code, making rules easier to maintain and update by non-technical stakeholders. The tool supports rule validation, testing, and deployment across various environments.
Developers should use OpenL Tablets when building applications that require dynamic business rules, such as insurance underwriting, loan approvals, or compliance systems, as it simplifies rule changes without code modifications. It is particularly valuable in regulated industries where business rules frequently evolve and need clear documentation for audits. Learning it enhances collaboration between technical teams and business analysts by providing a user-friendly rule authoring interface.
