Oracle Fusion Applications (OFA) are a portfolio of software products including Financials, Human capital management, Customer relationship management, Supply chain management, Procurement, Governance, and Project portfolio management. The software suite was developed by Oracle Corporation. Oracle Fusion Applications were first announced shortly after Oracle’s acquisition of Peoplesoft, JD Edwards, and Siebel Systems in 2005 and finally launched (but not released) in September, 2010.[1]

Oracle Fusion Applications were envisioned and pitched as an Enterprise resource planning suite: a combination of features and functionalities taken from Oracle E-Business Suite, JD Edwards, PeopleSoft and Siebel product lines[2] . The suite also leveragea the Service-oriented architecture capabilities of the underlying Oracle Fusion Middleware product.

Oracle Fusion Applications is standards-based, making it highly adaptable. This standards-based technology enables you to respond effectively to change with flexible, modular, user-driven business software that is powered by best-in-class business capabilities built on open standards. Its technology framework includes the following products:

  • Oracle WebCenter provides design time and runtime tools for building enterprise portals, transactional websites, and social networking sites.
  • Oracle Business Intelligence 11g provides a full range of business intelligence capabilities that enable you to analyze, present, report, and deliver organizational data.
