Oracle Unveils Oracle’s JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 9.0 and Oracle’s

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools 8.98

Oracle announced Oracle’s JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 9.0, the latest release of one of the company’s leading ERP platforms, and Oracle’s JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools 8.98.

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 9.0 includes a new Project and Government Contract Accounting module that helps meet the diverse and complex project management requirements of industries such as engineering and construction and professional project-oriented services. The new module also helps project-oriented firms meet U.S. government standards and requirements, such as the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR), the U.S. Cost Accounting Standards (CAS) and agency specific rules from other governmental bodies.

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 9.0 includes enhancements for financial management, supply chain management and human resource management. The latest release also includes industry-specific capabilities for engineering and

construction, food and beverage, commercial real estate, industrial manufacturing and professional services.

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools 8.98, the technology infrastructure for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne applications, includes innovations in reporting, integration, system administration and user experience, and is available for JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 8.10, 8.11, 8.11 SP1, 8.12 and 9.0.

Oracle’s strategy is to deliver complete, integrated and end-to-end product suites on an open, standards-based middleware and database architecture. Oracle’s approach helps customers to simplify computing environments, lower cost and risk, and provides greater choice and flexibility.

Key features of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 9.0 include:

· New Project and Government Contract Accounting module provides advanced project accounting integrated to an enterprise's general ledger to help deliver better data quality for improved compliance and financial management and multiple options for expense allocation on projects. New functionality handles detailed client-required payroll and time card reporting, report generation and invoice printing to specific client formats, and different financial burden and allocation methods for meeting client needs.

· Enhanced financial compliance capabilities through new data relationship functionality for assigning correct values to entered information. Now, data can be entered correctly using customer-defined rules to help eliminate the possibility that inconsistencies, abbreviations or incorrect spellings are captured.

· Dynamic configuration capabilities enable sales and customer service representatives to correctly enter sales order combinations comprised of products and service offerings.

· New industry-specific enhancements for food and beverage producers (harvest and blend operations), commercial real estate investors and managers (expense participation) and homebuilders (national purchasing).

JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Tools 8.98 supports JD Edwards EnterpriseOne applications 8.10, 8.11, 8.11 SP1, 8.12 and 9.0. Key features for reducing total cost of ownership include:

· New User Interface that incorporates customer-driven user interface improvements and adopts a consistent Oracle standard to enhance productivity and improve the visual experience.

· Enhanced Batch Process Management with out-of-the-box functionality to improve the management and monitoring of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne batch processes and reports.

“Companies across the globe rely on JD Edwards EnterpriseOne to successfully run and grow their businesses,” said Oracle Group Vice President and General Manager, JD Edwards, Lenley Hensarling. “With Oracle’s JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 9.0 and Tools 8.98, we are delivering hundreds of new enhancements providing business value and driving ownership costs down. A new Project and Government Contract Accounting module lets companies meet complex project requirements with added accountability, compliance and performance.”

Prepare Now for the Change from E-Government to Oracle iGovernment, Says Oracle’s Juan Rada

Over the next 15 years, new second-generation Web applications could transform how governments interact with their constituents and usher in an era of increased interagency collaboration, according to a road map Oracle presented at the just-completed Oracle OpenWorld conference in San Francisco.

Dubbed Oracle iGovernment, the new initiatives will build on the e-government foundation that has been evolving for more than a

decade. But rather than primarily offering an information-sharing vehicle, Oracle iGovernment will use the Web to deliver new ways for citizens to conduct transactions and dynamically interact with agencies.

For governments, an Oracle iGovernment infrastructure promises to break down process and information silos among agencies and departments, which could increase collaboration, and provide business analytics to help shape public policy.

“Citizens’ requirements have been changing over the past 20 years, yet the government has been slow in creating services to serve different constituents and different types of needs,” says Juan Rada, Oracle senior vice president for the public sector and education and health sciences.

Rada says the “i” in Oracle iGovernment represents innovation, integration, and intelligence.

Oracle will offer the building blocks for Oracle iGovernment enhancements with a suite of technologies that includes Web portals; service-oriented architecture (SOA); a Business Process Execution Language (BPEL) engine; and database-security, identity management, content management, and business intelligence capabilities. The application building blocks include specific solutions based on case management products for social services, law enforcement, and courts. Many of the applications are being modified and enhanced to serve better the needs of tax and revenue agencies, defense, as and citizen services.

“As we talk to governments around the world we’re finding that many are concerned about how to use the IT infrastructure in the future for a new generation of policy processes and

implementations,” Rada says. “These questions are appropriate for Oracle because we are in the unique position of being able to offer a complete stack of technology from infrastructure to applications for Oracle iGovernment.”

He adds that as a long-time vendor serving the public sector, “we have already tailored many of our products to serve the needs of this area.”

New Webcast Series Shows How to Transition to Next-Generation Government Applications

Oracle is finalizing plans for a four-part series of Webcasts beginning in December that will help public sector agencies launch next-generation applications to improve delivery of services and communicate better with constituents.

The Webcasts will detail Oracle’s vision for Oracle iGovernment, a framework for modernizing IT infrastructures and making it easier for agencies to share and manage information within the government and with citizens.

The four-part series will be hosted by Juan Rada, Oracle senior vice president for the public sector and education and health sciences. The first installment will take place at 11:00 a.m. PT / 2:00 p.m. ET on December 3, 2008. It will provide an overview of the challenges facing government organizations today, the limits of e-government for solving

these challenges, and ways Oracle can take organizations beyond e-government to Oracle iGovernment. Register now.

Future Webinars will detail other important elements of Oracle iGovernment:

Modernizing the IT Infrastructure
Improving Efficiency and Transparency
Transforming Government Service Delivery

Oracle iGovernment offers tools to develop flexible systems that integrate across service functions and departments using a service-oriented architecture (SOA); open standards; and a platform of database, middleware, and applications.

Will Citizen-Centric Applications Save E-Government?

E-government may have logged successes in making information and some transactions such as tax filing accessible via the Web, but many citizens feel underwhelmed by the initiative “because it hasn't really changed their lives by helping them do business with governments any better than in the past,” says Thom Rubel, practice director, government programs, for IDC Government Insights.

The problem? “E-government hasn’t anticipated doing business with the citizen based on what the citizen needs. Rather it’s based on what the government wants from the citizen,” he says.

Rubel offered his comments as governments and technology companies alike consider next-

generation government technologies, such as the Oracle iGovernment technology framework, unveiled at September’s Oracle OpenWorld.

Tomorrow’s government applications could upend traditional e-government implementations by using Web 2.0, customer relationship management (CRM), service-oriented architecture (SOA), Web portals, and other technologies to initiate new types of interactions carried out not only on PCs but also via smartphones, kiosks, and notebook computers.

“Mobility is the new frontier for government applications,” says Rubel. “Citizens are used to mobile devices for transacting business, and those capabilities are going to vastly increase, including within governments.”

In addition, public sector agencies may explore ways to “harvest” information with “anywhere, anytime” applications that solicit information from businesses and citizens. For example, an army of citizen meteorologists might notify emergency managers of changing weather conditions as a hurricane approaches. “Governments should have the capacity to gather data that’s essentially free and very informative—it's from people on the ground who are reacting to events,” Rubel explains.

The initial goal of original e-government programs was to push information out to people, Rubel adds. “The flipside, and where I see the greatest benefit for both governments and citizens, is in this kind of polling where citizens are trusting enough of the government entity to have more conversational transactions to help governments know how to serve constituents better,” Rubel says.

State of Vermont Selects Oracle Enterprise Taxation Management to Help Improve Tax Administration Efficiency

Oracle Introduces Next Version of Leading Tax Software to Help Public Sector Agencies Streamline Revenue Collection Processes and Improve Taxpayer Service

To help more efficiently and effectively administer taxes on behalf of its constituents, the State of Vermont has selected Oracle Enterprise Taxation Management.

Oracle also announced the availability of version 2.1.5 of Oracle Enterprise Taxation Management. The application provides public sector tax authorities with a flexible, standards-based solution for managing the core functions of revenue and tax administration. The latest version features several new capabilities including enhanced calculation configuration capabilities for more flexible development of tax, interest and other values, as well as expanded Web services capabilities.

The State of Vermont will work with Oracle and CGI to provide a single integrated tax and audit-processing platform for five tax types - corporate income, business income, property transfer, individual use and fuel gross receipts. Through the deployment, the state expects to realize operational benefits by leveraging a single, modern technology infrastructure for tax processing - built on Oracle Database and Oracle Application Server.

Oracle Enterprise Taxation Management Version 2.1.5 Details

Oracle Enterprise Taxation Management provides a flexible and cost-effective alternative to custom-built systems that are expensive to maintain and difficult to adapt to new tax laws and regulations.

It provides a single, unified view of each taxpayer by consolidating information from multiple legacy systems across all tax and revenue sources, enabling agencies to more efficiently and effectively bill, collect and manage funds. The application helps improve revenue generation, tracking and compliance.

The next version includes the following features:

· Enhanced calculation configuration capabilities for more flexible development of tax, penalty, interest and other calculated assessment values

· Improved labeling of application menu configuration items, allowing implementation teams to develop site-specific deployments

· Enhanced sample data, tutorials and detailed online help

· Enhanced Web services development capabilities for SOA-based integration with internal and external business application services

"We selected the Oracle solution supported by CGI because of both companies' solid reputations in the public sector industry," said Tom Pelham, Commissioner, State of Vermont Department of Taxes. "We look forward to recognizing a quick return on our investment with more efficient and effective tax management."

"As new tax laws and regulations impact our industry across the globe, Oracle is at the forefront of helping to deliver the flexibility and cost savings agencies need to remain successful under these terms," said John Andrus, vice president and general manager, Oracle Tax Global Business Unit, Oracle.

^{SOA Best
Practices: The BPEL Cookbook}

Learn advanced BPEL concepts and best practices for development, deployment, and administration from the architects implementing them in real-world applications.

Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is creating a lot of buzz across the IT industry. Propelled by standards-based technologies like XML, Web Services, and SOAP, SOA is quickly moving from pilot projects to mainstream applications critical to business operations.

One of the key standard accelerating the adoption of SOA is Business Process Execution Language (BPEL) for Web Services. BPEL enables organizations to automate their business processes by orchestrating services. It forces organizations to think in terms of services: Existing functionality is exposed as services.

New applications are composed using services. Services are reused across different applications. Services everywhere!

n this cookbook, 10 SOA practitioners share their SOA best practices and provide practical viewpoint to tackle many of the common problems SOA promises to solve. It's organized into three sections: "Service Oriented Integration," "Building Modern Applications," and "SOA Techniques." Sections 1 and 2 will "inspire" you to take the plunge into the world of services and test-drive SOA yourself; Section 3 will "equip" you with best-practice techniques for building a better SOA application.

We hope you enjoy it!

^{Oracle Introduces
The HP Oracle Database Machine: Delivering 10x Faster Performance Than
Current Oracle Data Warehouses}

Oracle Transforms Data Warehouse Deployments with Oracle® Exadata Storage Servers, the First-Ever Smart Storage Designed for Oracle Data Warehouses

In a keynote address to nearly 43,000 OpenWorld attendees, Oracle Chief Executive Officer, Larry Ellison unveiled the HP Oracle Database Machine, a system designed for extreme performance data warehouses.

The HP Oracle Database Machine consists of a grid of Oracle Database Servers and a grid of new Oracle® Exadata Storage Servers packaged in a single rack ordered as a complete system from Oracle.

The latest offering resulting from Oracle’s and HP’s long-time engineering relationship, Oracle Exadata Storage Servers break the performance bottleneck between database servers and conventional storage by shipping less data through larger pipes.

No changes are required to existing queries or business intelligence applications to deliver extreme performance for large Oracle data warehouses.

Oracle Exadata Product Family:

The product family consists of two components.

HP Oracle Database Machine is pre-configured for performance, pre- tuned, and certified for Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition tools and Oracle Real Application Clusters. Complete configurations can be ordered from Oracle, with hardware support by HP. The HP Oracle Database Machine is a high-performance system configured for data warehousing that includes a grid of eight database servers featuring: 64 Intel processor cores, and Oracle Enterprise Linux; and a grid of 14 Oracle Exadata Storage Servers that include up to 168 terabytes of raw storage and 14 GB/sec data bandwidth to the database servers.

HP Oracle Exadata Storage Servers are key performance enablers for the database machine and can be ordered separately if customers have an existing data warehouse and merely require the storage enhancements. Customers can build data warehousing solutions using HP Oracle Exadata Storage Servers, which feature industry-standard components including two Intel processors, up to 12 TB of raw storage and InfiniBand connectivity delivering 1 GB/sec of data bandwidth per storage server.

The HP Oracle Exadata Storage Server uses a massively parallel architecture to dramatically speed up Oracle data warehouses by shifting the data-intensive part of query processing away from Oracle Database Servers and closer to the data.

HP Oracle Exadata Storage Servers deliver 10x or more performance improvements in data-intensive query processing, have virtually unlimited I/O scalability, are easier to optimize for data warehousing, and provide mission-critical availability and reliability.

Availability & Delivery

The HP Oracle Database Machine and HP Oracle Exadata Storage Servers are available today.

Complete configurations can be ordered from Oracle.

Oracle is responsible for sales and system support.

HP is responsible for hardware delivery and hardware service.

“For the first time, customers can get smart performance storage designed for Oracle data warehouses, that is ten times faster,” said Oracle CEO Larry Ellison.

Oracle Buys Primavera

Creates First, Comprehensive Enterprise Project Portfolio Management Solution for Project-Intensive Industries

Oracle announced it has agreed to acquire Primavera Software, Inc., a leading provider of Project Portfolio Management (PPM) solutions, to accelerate its momentum in delivering mission-critical operational applications.

Primavera’s PPM software helps companies propose, prioritize and select project investments, and plan, manage and control the most complex projects and project portfolios. Together with Oracle’s applications and infrastructure software, Oracle expects to provide the first comprehensive enterprise project portfolio management solution that helps companies allocate the best resources, reduce costs, meet delivery dates and

ultimately make better decisions, all by using real-time data.

Oracle Enterprise PPM will be tailored to project-intensive industries such as engineering and construction, aerospace and defense, utilities, oil and gas, manufacturing, and professional services.

"Enterprise PPM is moving to the forefront of business strategy for industries managing complex and capital intensive projects, and has emerged as a global driver for value creation and business success," said Oracle President Charles Phillips. “With 20% of the world’s GDP spent annually on projects, the addition of Primavera is expected to extend Oracle’s leadership position in the enterprise application space.”

“As a leader in PPM solutions with over 25 years experience helping customers succeed at managing projects, programs and portfolios, Primavera is a natural addition to accelerate Oracle’s application strategy for project-intensive industries,” said Primavera CEO Joel Koppelman. “We are excited to join Oracle as a new global business unit where we can ensure continuity and success for our current and prospective customers and partners.”

Primavera employees and management are expected to join Oracle to form a global business unit (GBU) focused on Enterprise PPM, and to help ensure a smooth transition for Primavera customers and partners. Primavera’s CEO Joel Koppelman is expected to lead the business unit as Senior Vice President and General Manager.

The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to close in the second half of 2008. Until the deal closes, each company will continue to operate

independently. Financial details of the transaction were not disclosed.
