ORACLE OPENWORLD, San Francisco, October 5, 2011
News Facts
Oracle today announced that Oracle PartnerNetwork (www.oracle.com/partners/index.html) (OPN) Systems Implementation partners (SIs) around the world continue to rapidly adopt and invest in Oracle Fusion Applications (www.oracle.com/us/products/applications/fusion/index.html) .
Leveraging over 1,000 Oracle Fusion Application training (www.oracle.com/partners/en/knowledge-zone/applications/fusion-apps-030116.htm) assets available through Oracle OPN, implementation partners ranging from global SIs to niche and regional integrators continue to make significant investments in training and development of their Oracle Fusion Application practices.
Many of these partners have been active participants in Oracle Fusion Application Ramp-Up and Migration Co-Development programs (www.oracle.com/us/corporate/press/174095?ssSourceSiteId=opn) , gaining the deepest embedded exposure to Oracle Fusion Applications prior to their release. Partners who were selected for these programs demonstrated the highest levels of functional application domain and technological architecture expertise and have invested in co-development efforts with Oracle to deliver next generation functional and technical integration for Oracle Fusion Applications.
By gaining expertise in the Oracle Fusion Application early-adopter programs, these partners are uniquely positioned to help customers mitigate risk and reduce time in deploying Oracle Fusion Applications in tandem with their existing Oracle Application environment or in migrating older application instances to Oracle Fusion Applications.
Today, over 900 consultants representing forty-seven global implementation partners have participated in beta validation, business process testing, technical training and hands on functional training activities for Oracle Fusion Applications.
Oracle partners, including Infosys, Cognizant and Wipro, have also dedicated over 2,500 full-time resources, assisting Oracle in the development of customer migration and upgrade paths from the Oracle E-Business Suite, Oracle’s PeopleSoft, and Oracle’s Siebel CRM to Oracle Fusion Applications.
In addition, Hitachi Consulting has assisted Oracle in the development of Oracle’s Fusion Distributed Order Orchestration application.

Delivered as a complete suite of modular applications, Oracle Fusion Applications provide organizations with unmatched choice and flexibility across a range of deployment choices - from on premise, to private clouds, public clouds - and scale up or down as business needs change.
