Oracle ERP and Oracle Fusion are related but distinct software offerings provided by Oracle Corporation for enterprise resource planning (ERP) and business process management. Here’s a brief overview of each:

1. Oracle ERP: Oracle ERP refers to Oracle’s suite of applications designed to help businesses manage various aspects of their operations, including finance, procurement, supply chain, human resources, and more. Oracle offers a range of ERP products under different names, such as Oracle E-Business Suite, PeopleSoft, and JD Edwards. These products have been available for many years and have been used by organizations across different industries to streamline their business processes.
2. Oracle Fusion: Oracle Fusion, on the other hand, refers specifically to Oracle Fusion Applications, which is a newer generation of cloud-based applications developed by Oracle. These applications are designed to offer a modern and integrated approach to business processes, taking advantage of cloud technology, mobile capabilities, and modern user interfaces. Oracle Fusion Applications cover a wide range of functions, including ERP, human capital management (HCM), customer relationship management (CRM), supply chain management (SCM), and more.
