Accenture has unveiled the latest version of its Accenture Foundation Platform for Oracle (AFPO). AFPO is a pre-built, pre-tested Oracle Cloud Platform and on-premise technology architecture that offers accelerated implementation and strategic guidance to help improve application quality, lower IT cost, and speed deployment.

Building on Accenture and Oracle’s 23-year relationship and the recently announced Accenture, Version 10 enables cloud-to-cloud, cloud-to-on premise and cloud-to-custom integrations with the Oracle Cloud Platform.

  • Increase speed of larger cloud-based application transformation programs such as a major upgrade, reinstalling particular modules or planning for Oracle’s future application products
  • Aggregate disparate cloud platforms together into a single view through AFPO’s cloud monitoring tool
  • Accelerate the integration of standalone technology implementations. AFPO Version 10enables leading practices for 50+ different Oracle technology products, both traditional on-premise technologies and the new cloud services within Oracle’s Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS).

“With the introduction of each new version of the Accenture Foundation Platform for Oracle, the technology has become more robust and delivers significant business value for mutual clients,” said Ed Zou, vice president, Product Management, Oracle. “Accenture’s success with Accenture Foundation Platform for Oracle is one of the reasons we have awarded them with Oracle Excellence Awards, specifically in the area of Middleware.”
