Want to understand Oracle Fusion Middleware and what it can
do for you but don’t want to be blinded by techspeak? Well,
this is the session for you. Oracle Fusion Middleware gives
your organization the chance to improve your business
process, efficiency, and user experience. The session
shows what you can achieve by adopting Oracle Fusion
Middleware, the barriers you may need to address, and the
benefits you can realize. Harmonize acquired systems
without starting from scratch, integrate your systems, use
intelligence locked in your data to drive your business
forward . . . the list goes on. If you're technical, should you
stay away? You won’t learn how to "do" Oracle Fusion
Middleware, but you may learn how to "sell" it to your
business.

Oracle Strategy
The most important part is
integrated; Fusion is all
about the integration of data,
but to have integration you
need standards across all
your data sources - the
open, and as everything you
need is available from
Oracle (or they will buy it)
Oracle is complete.

Each Application Ran in its own silo. Data moved between applications via
interfaces often requiring manipulation of data and sometimes via more
‘modern’ technology such as ODBC connections and EDI
Service Orientated Architecture Wiki
 In computing, Service-oriented architecture (SOA) provides methods for
systems development and integration where systems group functionality
around business processes and package these as interoperable services.
 SOA also describes IT infrastructure which allows different applications to
exchange data with one another as they participate in business processes.
Service-orientation aims at a loose coupling of services with operating
systems, programming languages and other technologies which underlie
applications.
 SOA separates functions into distinct units, or services, which developers
make accessible over a network in order that users can combine and reuse
them in the production of business applications.
 These services communicate with each other by passing data from one
service to another, or by coordinating an activity between two or more
services. Many commentators[who?] see SOA concepts as built upon and
evolving from older concepts of distributed computing and modular
programming.

‘enterprise’ reporting
Each Application Ran in its own silo, with separate reporting. If you
wanted data from multiple applications to be reported on together, you
needed to extract it to a warehouse and then have separate reporting on
that.
Business Intelligence - Wiki




Business intelligence (BI) refers to skills, knowledge, technologies, applications,
quality, risks, security issues and practices used to help a business to acquire a better
understanding of market behavior and commercial context. For this purpose it
undertakes the collection, integration, analysis, interpretation and presentation of
business information. By extension, "business intelligence" may refer to the collected
information itself or the explicit knowledge developed from the information.
BI applications provide historical, current, and predictive views of business operations,
most often using data already gathered into a data warehouse or a data mart and
occasionally working from operational data. Software elements support the use of this
information by assisting in the extraction, analysis, and reporting of information.
Common functionality of business intelligence applications includes reporting, OLAP,
analytics, dashboards, scorecards, data mining, corporate performance management
(CPM), and predictive analysis.
BI applications tackle sales, production, financial, and many other sources of business
data for purposes that include, notably, business performance management. BI
operatives may gather information on comparable companies to produce benchmarks.
Business intelligence — the term dates at least to 1958 — aims to support better
business decision-making.[1] Thus one can also characterize a BI system as a decision
support system (DSS):[2] BI is sometimes used interchangeably with briefing books,
report and query tools and executive information systems. In general, business
intelligence systems are data-driven DSS.
Enterprise Performance
Management - Wiki

Business performance management (BPM) (or Corporate performance
management, Enterprise performance management, Operational performance
management, Business performance optimization) is a set of processes that help
organizations optimize their business performance. It is a framework for organizing,
automating and analyzing business methodologies, metrics, processes and systems
that drive business performance.

BPM is seen as the next generation of business intelligence (BI). BPM helps
businesses make efficient use of their financial, human, material and other resources.

For years, owners have sought to drive strategy down and across their organizations,
they have struggled to transform strategies into actionable metrics and they have
grappled with meaningful analysis to expose the cause-and-effect relationships that, if
understood, could give profitable insight to their operational decision makers.

Now corporate performance management (CPM) software and methods allow a
systematic, integrated approach that links enterprise strategy to core processes and
activities. “Running by the numbers” now means something as planning, budgeting,
analysis and reporting can give the measurements that empower management
decisions.
