There are many alternatives, not only commercial ones. Two overviews for Java open-source rule-based embeddings (both forward and backward chaining) are:

The most popular alternative (though not really open-source...) is probably Jess.

I mean: is there any other inference engine working with forward chaining
like Drools?

prolog is backward chaining, drools is forward training - see

Hello,

 I´m envolved in a project and I´d like to know what are the main
differences of Drool to Prolog, please.

 Is there any interpreter for Unix/Linux?

 Could I generate the DSL (Annotated Code) since annotations in a

Java

file?

 Thanks in advance.
