Integration, Automation, and Enterprise Connectivity
Oracle Integration Cloud provides a complete set of tools to address integration, automation, and development challenges in complex enterprise environments. Each of its services is designed to streamline application connectivity, simplify processes, and accelerate digital transformation without requiring large technical investments or long implementation timelines.
OIC enables the integration of cloud and on-premises applications within a single environment. Thanks to its extensive library of prebuilt adapters, it’s possible to easily and quickly connect solutions such as Oracle ERP Cloud, Salesforce, SAP, Workday, or Microsoft 365.
This hybrid integration capability ensures that companies can modernize their technology architecture without fully abandoning existing systems. In addition, Oracle provides native access to events in its own applications (ERP, HCM, and CX), eliminating the need for traditional techniques like polling, reducing latency, and improving efficiency.
Process automation is one of OIC’s core strengths. The platform includes a visual designer that allows you to orchestrate complex workflows through an intuitive drag-and-drop interface. This enables collaboration between technical and business teams, as advanced programming knowledge is not required.
From simple approval flows to full business processes—such as order management, employee onboarding, or invoicing—OIC allows you to design, execute, and monitor every step with full traceability and defined business rules.
Oracle Integration Cloud includes built-in API Management features, allowing organizations to create, expose, secure, and monitor APIs centrally. This is essential in environments where data moves across multiple platforms and strict control over information access is required.
OIC also supports both real-time and batch data integration, enabling constant synchronization between critical systems. This connectivity adapts to simple flows as well as more complex architectures that require data quality, validations, and format transformation.
OIC includes Oracle Visual Builder, a low-code development tool that enables the visual creation of web and mobile interfaces. Developers can build custom applications connected to existing systems, reusing integrations, APIs, and UI components within the same environment.
This service allows companies to extend the functionality of their SaaS solutions or create new digital touchpoints without relying on long development cycles. The applications produced are secure, scalable, and compatible with enterprise authentication and deployment standards.
One of OIC’s most innovative capabilities is its ability to intelligently map data between applications using AI- and machine learning-based recommendations. This feature analyzes community usage patterns and automatically suggests how to map fields between source and target systems.
With this approach, development, testing, and validation times for integrations can be reduced by up to 60%, enabling faster and more accurate implementations. Users can also customize the suggested mappings visually, without needing to handle code.
OIC enables businesses to connect applications in just minutes through its visual development interface, which uses a drag-and-drop design system. This functionality drastically reduces integration times and eliminates dependency on complex custom development. In addition, it integrates seamlessly with hybrid and multicloud environments, allowing organizations to work with SaaS applications, on-premises systems, and external platforms in a unified way.
This visual capability not only boosts the productivity of technical teams but also facilitates collaboration with non-technical profiles, such as business analysts, who can participate in flow design without programming knowledge.
One of OIC’s greatest strengths is its ability to automate end-to-end business processes. From managing cross-departmental approvals to automatically synchronizing data between applications, the platform allows you to design intelligent flows that save time, reduce human error, and accelerate operations.
OIC also incorporates RPA (robotic process automation) tools, enabling repetitive tasks to be automated without human intervention. This combination of integration and automation makes OIC a powerful solution for digitizing traditional processes and improving overall business efficiency.
Oracle Integration Cloud includes more than 80 ready-to-use adapters for connecting to enterprise applications such as Salesforce, SAP, Workday, ServiceNow, Snowflake, Microsoft 365, and many more. These adapters eliminate the need for development from scratch, ensuring fast, reliable, and upgrade-safe integrations.
In addition, OIC provides native connectivity with Oracle Cloud services (ERP, HCM, CX) and supports standard B2B protocols such as AS2, FTP, EDI X12, and EDIFACT. This broad connectivity covers both internal and external integrations—from internal process automation to the secure exchange of data with business partners.
By centralizing integrations and automations within a single platform, OIC reduces points of failure, minimizes synchronization errors, and provides full operational traceability. This enables real-time issue detection, alert escalation, and error correction before they impact the business.
The reduction of manual tasks, visual workflow monitoring, and real-time dashboards also help improve decision-making, reduce operational costs, and optimize resource utilization. Ultimately, OIC not only connects systems—it transforms the way companies manage their processes and data.
Oracle Integration Cloud adapts to a wide variety of business scenarios, enabling organizations of all sizes and industries to optimize their operations through automation and system connectivity. Its flexibility makes it an ideal solution both for complex corporate environments and for departments with specific integration needs.
Common use cases include:
New employee onboarding: automation of tasks across HR (HCM), finance, and IT systems to speed up the onboarding process.
Billing processes: integration between CRM, ERP, and payment platforms to automatically generate, validate, and send invoices.
Order and logistics management: connecting sales, warehouse, and transportation applications to ensure a continuous flow of information from purchase to delivery.
Master data updates: synchronization of key information such as products, customers, or suppliers across multiple internal and external systems.
Integration between cloud and on-premises systems: orchestration of distributed processes in hybrid environments without complex development.
