Oracle has become one of the world's leading technology companies, not only for its database solutions, but also because it offers companies solutions to manage all aspects of the business. More than 400,000 companies around the world have trusted Oracle to run their business, enabling companies like FedEx, Siemens and Toyota, just to name a few, to reach their full potential.

 

Let's start by defining what Oracle is

 

Oracle's flagship product is its databases. In fact, when Oracle is named it is automatically associated with the databases. It is a multi-model relational database management system designed primarily for enterprise grid computing and data warehousing. It is one of the first choices for businesses for cost-effective solutions for their applications and data management. It supports SQL as a query language to interact with the databaseā€, they explained in an Educba article.

 

These Oracle databases are highly sought after because they are characterized by flexible standards, scale on demand, higher availability, better costs, and companies that implement this product have a secure future, since security and support are guaranteed.

 

Another of the most attractive features of Oracle databases is that it "easily manages multiple databases within the same transaction," they highlighted in an article on the Nine Hertz portal. Also, when it comes to updates, there is high compatibility between all Oracle database versions, so you won't have any problems accessing your data.

Oracle Database features that make it attractive

 

  • The high availability of data stands out at all times. This means that, even if there are failures or periods of inactivity, you will always be able to access your data.
  • The performance and scalability of Oracle databases are second to none.
  • Oracle offers mechanisms to monitor and control access to the database.
  • Whatever your database failure, you can always recover your data.

 

Oracle Cloud Applications

 

But Oracle is more than database solutions. It also makes Oracle Cloud Applications available to organizations, which is "a complete set of applications in the cloud that offers uniform processes and data for your entire company," Oracle explained on its website.

 

These are SaaS applications that allow you to manage the most important business areas, such as resource planning, supply chain management and human capital management.

 

These Oracle Cloud Applications have become popular in organizations because they integrate so well with each other, working in sync while providing a modern user experience for both your employees and customers.

It is the application for supply chain management. "Oracle Fusion Cloud SCM connects supply networks with an integrated set of business applications conceived and designed to anticipate change", Oracle detailed about this app. You will be able to handle these operations:
