Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/ad4cd8/oracle_fusion_midd) has announced the addition of the "Oracle Fusion Middleware 11G: Delivering What It Promised" report to their offering.

There were few surprises in the rollout of Oracle's Fusion Middleware 11g stack. A year after it announced the roadmap for converging the then newly acquired BEA products, Oracle has delivered most of what it planned. The BEA products have rounded out the Fusion Middleware stack, with WebLogic Server providing the critical mass cornerstone that the product family previously lacked. The company has effectively paired technologies from both sides, such as BEA's JRockit deterministic virtual machine with Oracle's Coherence Java object caching, making high-performance products such as Oracle CEP more effective. The result is a highly comprehensive, well-integrated middleware stack.

Oracle's standard messages for the well-integrated stack are mixed. The company heavily emphasizes that Fusion Middleware 11g is "hot pluggable," which means it supports customers wishing to implement best-of-breed strategies that require replacement of individual Fusion Middleware products with standards-compliant third-party alternatives. On the other hand, it also promotes proprietary development and management technologies optimized for Oracle products. Oracle's "you-can-have-it-both-ways" message is not unique, but given its emphasis on standards, it could clarify the message more effectively.
