“Oracle Fusion an amalgamation”. Oracle fusion is an ERP application in development stage which integrates ‘Best in Class’ industry business processes. Oracle has an extensive product portfolio.
Oracle’s current product portfolio contains :
Fusion unites the best processes from Oracle’s existing product portfolio.Oracle’s each product masters in one of the functional area. For example, PeopleSoft’s Human Capital Management (HCM) and Student Administration (SA) modules are considered best in the market, similarly Siebel Customer Relationship Management (CRM) is considered best in the market. Fusion will contain HCM and SA from PeopleSoft and CRM from Siebel hence it is a combination of impeccable functionalities.
Integration: Fusion Application can be integrated with any application very easily as it uses Oracle Fusion Middleware based on Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). SOA uses defined protocols that describe how services pass and parse messages, using description meta-data. When I first read the definition of SOA I felt the same as you are feeling now, I thought it’s not in English however after reading the example given below,you will feel a lot better.
Company X has implemented Fusion Finance and mySAP ERP Operations. So the accounts payable (AP) will be operated from Fusion Finance because it’s a finance module and purchasing will be operated from mySAP ERP Operations as it’s a SCM module.
Accounts Payable requires data from SCM regarding Vendors. As vendors are stored in the SCM but the Vendor information is required by finance also, For example, you need to send the payment of the goods you purchased then you require Vendor information like the Vendor address, name, bank account etc. However this information is present in the SCM . In such cases both systems need to talk to each other, in our case the Fusion Finance and SAP SCM need to exchange data. If we don’t have SOA architecture then it’s not possible as the interfaces will be different for both technologies however with the SOA architecture two different systems can communicate with each other because SOA converts data into meta-data. Meta-Data is the data that any system can process.
