4. ImplementationOrganizations can choose between three options towards a Fusion implementation, each at its own specific business pace. These options are explained in more detail in figure 2.

Oracle Fusion Applications suites and/or modules can be hosted in an Oracle cloud or on physical servers at clients premises. Oracle cloud environments can be securely sharedwithotherorganizations(PubicCloud)todecreaseoperatingcosts.Alternatively, organizations can choose a hostedprivateenvironment(PrivateCloud)to meet local legislation or strict data integrity/security requirements. A mix of these options for multiple modules/suites is possible as well, providing organizations the opportunity to adapt to the hosting model which meets their security and hosting needs.
