Fusion Architecture

Oracle Fusion Architecture (OFA) is a standards-based technology reference architecture or blueprint for building applications.

Note that Fusion Architecture is not a product, and can be used without paying Oracle a cent. In fact, many companies use it to write applications that can run on Oracle's Fusion Middleware or that compliments Oracle's Fusion Applications.

Oracle Fusion Architecture is based on the following core principles:

• Model Driven: For applications, business processes and business information
• Service & Event- enabled: For extensible, modular, flexible applications and processes
• Information Centric: For complete and consistent, actionable, real-time intelligence
• Grid-Ready: Must be scalable, available, secure, manageable on low-cost hardware
• Standards-based: Must be open, pluggable in a heterogeneous environment
