Oracle AIA, Fusion Middleware and SOA

Andrews Consulting as a great article series on The JD Edwards Advisor about Oracle’s application direction and how it effects EnterpriseOne (E1).

In the latest installment (Part 3), Lee explains Oracle’s direction with AIA and Fusion Middleware.

I think it’s great that Oracle is looking to have all of it’s products be able to integrate with each other. However, I find Oracle’s push to get organizations to use them for everything a little too much like Microsoft.

At my current employer, we are have started to use Oracle products for more and more things:

• Current platform for our Business Intelligence database
• Possible future use of Oracle Application Server for EnterpriseOne
• Starting a multi-million dollar project to install Oracle Utilities Customer Care and Billing (formerly SPL Customer Care & Billing)

I’m thinking, as time goes on, this list could get a lot longer.

I also think that I am starting to have some serious inner struggles:

• Oracle Linux vs. Microsoft Windows vs. IBM OS/400
• MS SQL Server vs. Oracle Database vs. IBM DB2
• MS .Net vs. PHP – for personal projects
• MS SQL Server vs. MySQL – for personal projects

Information Technology is NEVER BORING!
