The Business Object Modelling (BOM) workbook treats the approach used to create and manage the BIAN Reference Data Architecture for the Financial Industry. It treats the added value this model can provide for the Financial Industry and its service providers. However, the applicability of the approach used by BIAN to create and manage its Reference Data Architecture, and the added value of such “enterprise data model”, is not limited to BIAN and the financial industry. The workbook treats the Business Object Modeling Approach and the creation, management and application of an enterprise data model in general, using BIAN as an example. After a short introduction of the general design principles and elements of BIAN’s Reference Architecture for the Financial Industry, the workbook focuses on the Business Object Modeling approach, used to create an enterprise data model, of which the BIAN Business Object Model (BIAN BOM) is one example. The Business Object Modeling approach and its Patterns is explained, illustrated by examples and exercises. This approach supports information analysis and data modeling in general, and is well suited for a step-by-step elaboration of an enterprise data model (such as the BIAN BOM). BIAN’s documentation approach, using the ArchiMate and UML languages, is explained. This approach is used to represent The BIAN BOM and manage it as an “enterprise data model” – BIAN’s Reference Data Architecture for the Financial Industry. Understanding BIAN’s documentation conventions helps the reader in exploiting BIAN’s data-related deliverables and can inspire the elaboration of a documenation approach to manage an organization’s own enterprise data model. The last part of the workbook treats the application of the Business Object Modeling approach and the BIAN BOM – or an organization’s enterprise data model, in general. They can support information analysis and data design as well as Information Governance and Enterprise Data Architecture. They can facilitate the cooperation with partners and service providers. The Business Object Modelling (BOM) workbook accompanies the BIAN Data Architecture & Design Specialist training.

This IBM® Redbooks® publication introduces operational decision governance and describes in detail how to implement it using the IBM Operational Decision Manager (ODM) platform. ODM allows businesses to automate and manage day-to-day operational decisions. It provides an integrated repository and management components for line-of-business, subject-matter experts to directly participate in the definition and governance of rules-based decision logic, organized in decision services. Governance of changes to decision services is of particular importance and value. This book describes how organizations can choose between the built-in ODM decision governance framework or a custom governance based on manually managed branches. Related topics, such as access control, permissions and user management, are covered and give a full view on decision service governance. You will find this book valuable if you are using or considering the usage of an operational decision management system in your organization, either with ODM on-premises or ODM on Cloud offerings. This book was written to help assist the following target audience in applying Decision Management technology successfully: IT Project Managers need to understand how decision governance differs from IT Governance, and how ODM straddles both worlds to facilitate agile change. IT Technical Architects need to understand how to architect ODM to sit inside both the IT and business worlds. Business Analysts need to understand the processes for changing business policies using ODM Decision Center. Business Rule Development Teams need to understand the best way to structure rule projects for scalability and maintainability.

Business rules are everywhere. Every enterprise process, task, activity, or function is governed by rules. However, some of these rules are implicit and thus poorly enforced, others are written but not enforced, and still others are perhaps poorly written and obscurely enforced. The business rule approach looks for ways to elicit, communicate, and manage business rules in a way that all stakeholders can understand, and to enforce them within the IT infrastructure in a way that supports their traceability and facilitates their maintenance. Boyer and Mili will help you to adopt the business rules approach effectively. While most business rule development methodologies put a heavy emphasis on up-front business modeling and analysis, agile business rule development (ABRD) as introduced in this book is incremental, iterative, and test-driven. Rather than spending weeks discovering and analyzing rules for a complete business function, ABRD puts the emphasis on producing executable, tested rule sets early in the project without jeopardizing the quality, longevity, and maintainability of the end result. The authors’ presentation covers all four aspects required for a successful application of the business rules approach: (1) foundations, to understand what business rules are (and are not) and what they can do for you; (2) methodology, to understand how to apply the business rules approach; (3) architecture, to understand how rule automation impacts your application; (4) implementation, to actually deliver the technical solution within the context of a particular business rule management system (BRMS). Throughout the book, the authors use an insurance case study that deals with claim processing. Boyer and Mili cater to different audiences: Project managers will find a pragmatic, proven methodology for delivering and maintaining business rule applications. Business analysts and rule authors will benefit from guidelines and best practices for rule discovery and analysis. Application architects and software developers will appreciate an exploration of the design space for business rule applications, proven architectural and design patterns, and coding guidelines for using JRules.
