7. Oracle Fusion – What Is It?
• O l Fusion Applications
Oracle F i A li ti
• Oracle’s next generation of enterprise applications
• Oracle Fusion Middleware
• Integrated standards-based middleware platform
• Oracle Fusion Architecture
• Recommended architecture for your custom applications

8. What is the Fusion Product Stack?
• Oracle JD
O l JDeveloper – th d

11. The Challenge
• O one side:
On id
• JSF, EJB, Ajax, JavaScript, BPEL, SOAP, WSDL, RMI, JNDI,
JDBC, O/R, HTML, DOM….
• On the other side:
• Thousands of developers
p
• Most don’t know these technologies
• Most come from 4GL background
• Expecting a visual and declarative approach
• Don’t have time to learn all these new technologies
• Need to focus on their specific application needs
• How do you make it easy and approachable?

17. Oracle Application Development
Framework (ADF)
• End-to-end Ja a
End to end Java EE frame ork that is extensible
framework e tensible
• Utilizes and adds value to the Java EE platform
• Abstracts Java EE complexity
• Provides declarative and visual development
• Enables developers to focus on the application, not the low-
level infrastructure
• Creates reusable and maintainable code
• Metadata simplifies the basic task of wiring user interfaces to
services
• Implements Java EE best practices and design patterns,
including
i l di MVC
