… which came from a prospective customer who had based their research on top analyst Woodman’s famous Ripple report on Business Rule Engines. Which TIBCO didn’t participate in. So obviously we don’t have a rule engine (despite a 1-second Google returning over 17,ooo hits…).
To be fair, though, you won’t see “rule engine” under the TIBCO products list on the main web page. But then you won’t find “XML Processor” or “Application Server” in that product classification either…
So:
- if you are a “top analyst”, note TIBCO has a rules engine. And a rule (decision) management system. And an analytics suite. Really.
- if you are a “rule engine customer”, you might want to include TIBCO on your evaluation list…
