Curious to learn best practice to integrate with Oracle Cloud ERP Financials.
The project team is pushing for FTP integration to my surprise. I was assuming Datalink would be the best alternative. Does anyone have experience on it?
Thank You
Hey Juan,
Datalink probably could integrate with Oracle Cloud ERP Financials, but generally speaking, finance organizations do not want anyone plugging in directly into the financial system of record (from a security perspective). If you can overcome that requirement, then you can request from your project team all the different types of connectors that datalink supports to determine the best fit for Oracle Cloud ERP. (I don't know if we have a Cloud connector built yet for that). We have an Oracle Financials connector, but not "Cloud". so not sure of that. IF we don't have the specific connector, you should just be able to create a direct SQL connector to the DB.. But again, it's rare that Apptio (Datalink) has direct access to the financial system of record.
Hope this helps.
