Oracle Applications comprise the applications software or business software of
Oracle Corporation. The term refers to the non-database and non-middleware
parts of Oracle's software portfolio.
Oracle sells many functional modules which use the Oracle RDBMS
as a back-end, notably Oracle Financials, Oracle HRMS, Oracle Projects, Oracle
CRM, Oracle Procurement, etc.
Oracle initially launched its application suite with financials
software in the late 1980s. The offering as of 2009 extends to supply-chain
management, human-resource management, warehouse-management,
customer-relationship management, call-center services, product-lifecycle
management, and many other areas. Both in-house expansion and the acquisition
of other companies have vastly expanded Oracle's application software business.
Oracle released Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS/ e-BS) Release 12
(R12) — a bundling of several Oracle Applications applications — in February
2007. The release date coincided with new releases of other Oracle-owned
