Oracle JD Edwards
Publishes 6 year roadmap on MyOracle Support to Assist Customers with
Upgrade Planning
For the first time ever, Oracle JD
Edwards publishes a 6 year roadmap, to assist customers with upgrade
planning, on MyOracle Support. Our competitors regularly spread FUD
that JD Edwards is dead, that Oracle is not investing in JD Edwards and
that JD Edwards customers will be forced to go to Fusion
Applications.
This roadmap once and for all should refute those false claims and
allows customers to effectively plan their JD Edwards upgrades with
confidence.
Use of the roadmap is governed by Oracle’s Revenue Recognition Policy
Associated with Future Product Communications. It is not to be used for
any sales efforts. Any use other than for upgrade planning purposes
should comply with Revenue Recognition Policy with any questions
