DecisionRules Business Intelligence

Analytics container for audit logs and reporting in Docker and On-Premise environments.

Production Container

Introduction

The DecisionRules Business Intelligence application provides access to audit log data for reporting, analytics, and external BI integrations.

Use this container when you need to analyze DecisionRules activity, connect reporting tools, or expose audit data for dashboards. It exists to separate analytics workloads from the main application runtime while still integrating with the DecisionRules client and server.

The Business Intelligence application is optional. It is not required for a standard DecisionRules deployment.

The Business Intelligence application requires:

• a MongoDB connection for BI data

• a compatible DecisionRules Client and Server deployment

• enough resources for analytics workloads

Setup

Where to get it

You can download the latest production image from Docker Hub:

• DecisionRules Business Intelligence on Docker Hub

How to run it

You can run the container directly with docker run or through docker compose.

Method 1: Run with docker run

Pull the latest image:

docker pull decisionrules/business-intelligence

Run the container:

docker run -d \
  -p 8082:8082 \
  -e BI_MONGO_DB_URI=YOUR_MONGO_URI \
  decisionrules/business-intelligence

Method 2: Run with docker compose

Create a docker-compose.yml file:

version: "1.0"

services:
  business-intelligence:
    image: decisionrules/business-intelligence
    environment:
      - "BI_MONGO_DB_URI=YOUR_MONGO_URI"
    ports:
      - "8082:8082"

Start it with:

docker compose up

Integration with other containers

To make the Business Intelligence application work correctly with the rest of the platform:

• set BI_API_URL=YOUR_URL in the Client container

• if you use a different MongoDB cluster for Business Intelligence, set BI_MONGO_DB_URI=YOUR_URI in the Server container as well

What to check after startup

After startup, confirm that:

• the Business Intelligence container is running

• the configured MongoDB connection works

• the client can reach the BI API endpoint

• BI features load correctly in the application
