Question

Answer

Purpose and Overview

What is the purpose of the AI Rules Engine?

The AI Rules Engine automates code generation for workflows driven by specific business rules or logic, streamlining large-scale data transformations and improving efficiency.

Use Cases and Scenarios

What use cases and scenarios are better suited for AI Rules Engine, and which for Traditional Mapping Rules?

AI Rules Engine is suited for complex scenarios with dynamic rule generation, large datasets, and scalability needs. Traditional Mapping Rules are ideal for simple, repetitive mappings.

Auto-Mapping Features

What is the difference between AI Rules Engine Auto-Mapper (Local) and Auto-Mapper (AI-Based)?

Auto-Mapper (Local) uses predefined rules and static logic, while Auto-Mapper (AI-Based) leverages AI to predict and create mappings based on data patterns.

Platform Compatibility

Will the AI Rules Engine run on both Windows and Linux Adeptia environments?

Yes, the AI Rules Engine is compatible with both Windows and Linux environments within Adeptia.

Supported Versions

What version of AC supports AI Rules Engine?

The AI Rules Engine is supported in AC 4.3 and above.

Can AI Rules Engine be added to previous AC version deployments?

No, the AI Rules Engine is suited for AC 4.4 and above and does not support older versions.

Responsibility and Usage

Which Adeptia team is responsible for maintaining the AI Rules Engine?

The R&D team handles new enhancements, while the MST team manages support-related responsibilities.

Can AI Rules Engine be used externally from any other application as a service?

Yes, it can be used externally, but it is primarily embedded within Adeptia for internal use.

Limitations

What are the limitations of the AI Rules Engine?

Key limitations include supported formats (e.g., JSON), Azure OpenAI Services dependency, and suitability for only complex workflows.
