{{About|middleware technology side of Oracle Fusion which consists of two parts - Oracle Fusion Applications and Oracle Fusion Middleware, both running on an [[open architecture]] ecosystem - Oracle Fusion Architecture. For the fusion applications, see [[Oracle Fusion Applications]]|the open architecture ecosystem|Oracle Fusion Architecture}}
'''Oracle Fusion Middleware''' ('''FMW''', also known as '''Fusion Middleware''') consists of several [[software]] products from [[Oracle Corporation]]. FMW spans multiple services, including [[Java EE]] and [[Software development|developer]] tools, [[Systems integration|integration]] services, [[business intelligence]], [[collaborative software|collaboration]], and [[content management]]. FMW depends on [[open standard]]s such as [[BPEL]], [[SOAP]], [[XML]] and [[Java Message Service|JMS]].<ref>

== Evolution ==
Many of the products included under the FMW banner do not themselves qualify as [[middleware]] products: "Fusion Middleware" essentially represents a re-branding of many of Oracle products outside of Oracle's core [[database]] and applications-software
Oracle acquired many of its FMW products via acquisitions.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.oracle.com/corporate/acquisitions/
In order to provide standards-based software to assist with [[business process automation]], [[Hewlett-Packard|HP]] has incorporated FMW into its "[[service-oriented architecture]] (SOA) portfolio".<ref>{{cite web
