I was reading an article that refers to the following but did not have any description about what these are actually. Can anyone help me understand these w.r.t software architecture/design? Thank you.
- business objects
- business engines
- business entities
- business rules

Business Object and Business Entity are probably the same. They are computer models of things that are important to a business, such as a Sales Order.
A Business Rule is something like this: if orderQuantity > 10 and customerCountry = USA then discount = 0.10
Business Engine probably means computer code to validate a business object or to evaluate a business rule, an example being JBOSS Drools.
