Hi,
I have a general question to understand the performance impact if we are using gateway to decide over the new path taken or if we are using rule for the same purpose. Taking a scenario if we can implement the same functionality using both gateway or rule?
It will be good if some could explain how rule (event) works?...

Rahul,
The use case for using gateway nodes versus a rule event differs. The rule event should be used in the scenario that your process is waiting for a condition to evaluate to be true. An example could be to only activate quick tasks for a process when a Boolean status called active is set to true. From the documentation: You can use a Rule Event to monitor global constants and process variables. Each time a global constant or process variable is changed, the rule is reevaluated.

The different gateways are to be used depending on how you need your flow to progress. More here:
