EBS to Fusion: Three Paths to Cloud Transformation

Migrating from Oracle E-Business Suite to Oracle Fusion Cloud isn't a single decision — it's a choice between fundamentally different transformation strategies. In this session, SMX's Oracle practice walks through three proven approaches: Outside In, which modernizes planning and forecasting first by implementing Oracle EPM Cloud while EBS stays transactional; Inside Out, which replaces the General Ledger first and phases out remaining EBS modules over time; and All In, a full enterprise-wide move to Oracle Fusion Cloud in one transformation. We'll compare each approach on speed, risk, cost, and business disruption, and help you identify which path — or combination of paths — fits your organization's priorities, technical debt, and appetite for change.

Learning Objectives: 

1. Explain the three primary approaches to migrating from Oracle EBS to Oracle Fusion Cloud (Outside In, Inside Out, and All In) and what each involves operationally.
   Compare the trade-offs of each approach across speed, cost, risk, and business disruption.
2. Assess which approach best aligns with their organization's current EBS environment, transformation goals, and risk tolerance.
3. Identify the key implementation considerations — integration, data conversion, and change management — associated with each path"
