Summary
In this chapter we have analyzed jBPM and how it can be used in conjunction with Drools. We analyzed the two most important patterns with regard to how rules can benefit from processes and vice-versa. In the second half of the chapter we reviewed how shared mechanisms such as persistence and transactions can be configured and used.
The next chapter is about how to integrate Drools (and jBPM) with our applications and services. We will be looking at the new Kie Server introduced in version 6.3, and how Drools and jBPM integrate with popular frameworks such as Apache Camel, Spring, and CDI.
