Fusion Will Dawn in 2010

After spending years and years gestating a significant new lineup of business software, Oracle Chief Executive Larry Ellison said on Oct. 14 that the company's long-awaited Fusion applications would make their debut next year.

Ellison, delivering a keynote address at the company's OpenWorld conference in San Francisco, also tried to reassure customers who have been concerned that they might be forced to switch from older software to Fusion if Oracle were to discontinue supporting old iterations of its software. For the next 10 years.

Oracle will continue to develop and enhance older software from PeopleSoft, Siebel Systems, and other brands of the almost 60 companies it has acquired for $30 billion in the past half-decade.
