Unlocking the Power of Oracle Fusion Analytics

Oracle Fusion Analytics comprises a suite of preconstructed, cloud-native analytics applications designed for Oracle Cloud Applications, catering to line-of-business users seeking readily available insights for enhanced decision-making.

This solution empowers business users by offering cutting-edge, AI-driven, self-service analytics functionalities encompassing data preparation, visualization, enterprise reporting, augmented analysis, and natural language processing. Functioning as a Cloud application, it delivers industry-leading Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and in-depth analyses, facilitating effective business management. Leveraging Oracle Analytics Cloud and Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse as its foundation, Oracle Fusion Analytics seamlessly integrates with Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications. Users can swiftly deploy, personalize, and extend this packaged service, initiating the extraction and loading of data from Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications into an instance of Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse. Subsequently, business users can create and tailor dashboards within Oracle Analytics Cloud.

Comprising a comprehensive set of components, this service includes a data pipeline, data warehouse, semantic model, and exemplary content featuring preconstructed Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), dashboards, and reports. Oracle oversees the entire service lifecycle, managing deployment, performance monitoring, upgrades, and maintenance specifically for the prebuilt content. Customization options for the preconstructed content are available, as detailed in the Customize Oracle Fusion Analytics section.

Beyond the data originating from your Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications, you have the flexibility to integrate external data from non-Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications sources such as SalesForce or EBusiness Suite into the Oracle Autonomous Data Warehouse linked with Oracle Fusion Analytics.

It is imperative to set up the provided semantic model exclusively using the built-in tools of Oracle Fusion Analytics and deploy it solely within the designated service instance of Oracle Fusion Analytics. Configuration of the included semantic model using non-Oracle Fusion Analytics tools, such as Oracle Analytics Client Tools, Oracle Analytics Administration Tool, or APIs, is strictly prohibited.

Oracle Fusion Analytics operates on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure and seamlessly interfaces with numerous infrastructure services. Prior to initiating usage of Oracle Fusion Analytics, it is essential to acquaint yourself with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
