• But marketing does not tell us how we will support the product? How is it actually working ?
Debra Lilley OTN Latin America Tour 2011 4
support the product? How is it actually working ? This session will have a presentation that explains the architecture and design, explaining what data sources are used where and how - there are at least 3 databases! Hopefully will also include a demo of a small portion and then I want your questions

But still important - 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
Debra Lilley OTN Latin America Tour 2011 8
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.
