Oracle Fusion Applications
Oracle Fusion Applications (OFA) are enterprise resource planning software applications from Oracle Corporation. The applications are distributed across various product families including financial management, human capital management, customer relationship management, supply chain management, procurement, governance, student administration, and project portfolio.
Oracle Fusion Applications were announced shortly after Oracle's US$18 billion acquisition spree of PeopleSoft, JD Edwards, and Siebel Systems in 2005.[1][2]
Oracle Fusion Applications were envisioned and pitched as an enterprise resource planning suiteāa combination of features and functionalities taken from the Oracle E-Business Suite, JD Edwards, PeopleSoft, and Siebel product lines.[3][4] The suite is built on top of the Oracle Fusion Middleware technology stack; both layers implement the Oracle Fusion Architecture, which leverages the capabilities of service-oriented architecture.[5][6]
Oracle Fusion Applications were launched in September 2010 and released one year later at OpenWorld 2011.[3][4]
