Short description : Business software
Oracle Applications comprise the applications software or business software of the Oracle Corporation both in the cloud and on-premises. The term refers to the non-database and non-middleware parts. The suite of applications includes enterprise resource planning, enterprise performance management, supply chain & manufacturing, human capital management, and advertising and customer experience.[ 1]
Oracle initially launched its application suite with financials software in the late 1980s. By 2009, the offering extended to supply chain management , human-resource management , warehouse-management , customer-relationship management , call-center services, product-lifecycle management, and many other areas. Both in-house expansion and the acquisition of other companies have vastly expanded Oracle's application software business.
In February 2007, Oracle released Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS/e-BS) Release 12 (R12) – a bundling of several Oracle Applications. The release date coincided with new releases of other Oracle-owned products: JD Edwards EnterpriseOne , Siebel Systems and PeopleSoft .
Oracle also has a portfolio of enterprise applications for the cloud (SaaS ) known as Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications . These cloud applications include Oracle Cloud ERP , Oracle Cloud EPM, Oracle Cloud HCM , Oracle Cloud SCM, and Oracle Advertising and CX .
