Finally, Salonis announces a deeper integration with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure, deploying its Process Intelligence Platform on OCI to industrialize enterprise AI. The collaboration enables process mining, automated workflow orchestration, and high‑impact automation opportunities across Oracle Fusion applications.
