Manage Application Updates

As a service and functional administrator, ensure that you periodically check the Release Updates tile on the Console in Fusion Analytics for new releases and plan the update activities.

Fusion Analytics provides quarterly application updates with the control and flexibility to choose when to apply the updates within the scheduled auto-update date. Oracle applies any critical security patches automatically. These updates have zero downtime. The auto-update process updates the data model, immediately adds new content, and replaces existing content with the latest updates. The process preserves the activated functional area data pipelines and resets the functional area data pipelines in Saved or Scheduled status to the Saved status. See About Application Updates and Update Your Application.

You can view the notifications displayed on the Data Configuration page when application updates are available for major releases (quarterly basis), patches (monthly basis), and emergency fixes (as needed). You must plan and communicate decisions on when you perform the updates. Ensure that the update activities align with your overall governance and compliance policies.

Use the checklist to confirm that the action items are planned for. See Manage Application Updates Checklist.
