Corticon Servers implement web services for business rules defined in Corticon Studios.
The Corticon Server is a high-performance, scalable and reliable system resource that manages pools of Decision Services and executes their rules against incoming requests. The Corticon Server can be easily configured as a Web Services server, which exposes the Decision Services as true Web Services.
