ILOG® (NASDAQ: ILOG; Euronext: ILO, ISIN: FR0004042364), today announced that its ILOG JRules®, a key offering in ILOG’s business rule management system (BRMS) product line, has received “Designed for EMC Documentum” accreditation status. The Designed for EMC Documentum designation demonstrates that ILOG JRules has successfully met a stringent set of criteria for good design, development and implementation. Further, the designation ensures that JRules applications developed for the EMC® Documentum® enterprise content management (ECM) platform require minimal implementation and configuration.

Using ILOG JRules’ standards-based “Transparent Decision Service” integration, Documentum customers can leverage ILOG’s business rules management system to deploy and apply policy changes. Leveraging ILOG’s award-winning JRules, business users can make policy changes within any business process management (BPM) application without any IT involvement. The end result is faster business agility in response to customer demands, regulations and competitive threats.

Customers pursuing enterprise service-oriented architecture (SOA) strategies achieve additional benefits as a result of using a BRMS because the system provides complete control over changes in decision services, reducing operational cost and improving transparency. ILOG JRules allows users to automatically deploy rule-based Web services.

“With competitive pressures mounting, organizations need to find new ways to deliver process efficiency and enhance their business response times”, said Desmond Delandro, vice president of strategic alliances of ILOG. “We are pleased to be teaming with EMC, and look forward to bringing more high-value offerings to market for the benefit of our mutual customers.”
