Oracle’s recent release of Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System 11.1.2 marks another round in the company’s recently frantic release pattern, with its large number of additions and applications again hinting at a strategic desire to expand its middleware stack.
The new applications baked into Oracle EMP System 11.1.2 include Oracle Hyperion Disclosure Management, Oracle Hyperion Financial Close Management and Oracle Hyperion Public Sector Planning and Budgeting. Features include intelligent approval workflows, zero-code Web forms and, according to Oracle, “virtually seamless delivery of all the planning, workflow and task management capabilities to business users through familiar Microsoft Excel and Outlook interfaces.”
