More proof that the business rules market is hot

Some time ago I wrote that business rules might be the fastest growing market you haven't heard of and a recent IDC flash - Momentum Continues for Leading Vendors in Business Rules Management Systems Market - would seem to reinforce this point of view. Stephen Hendrick previews his upcoming detailed market analysis by highlighting both how fast the market is growing and how dominant Fair Isaac and ILOG are. Given the strong growth the leading vendors showed this year and Stephen's predictions for accelerating growth beyond 2006, this market looks like it has some serious legs.
