For over a decade since Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications entered the market, the prevailing advice has been to minimise customisations, with Oracle often restricting the ability to extend functionalities. The rationale was simple: frequent quarterly updates and the risk of breaking core functionalities made custom solutions challenging.
However, with Oracle’s evolving cloud ecosystem—particularly with Oracle Redwood UX, AI Agent Studio, and flexible extension capabilities—the narrative is shifting. It is now not only possible but, in some cases, advisable to extend and create new apps within Oracle Fusion Cloud, provided it’s done responsibly by following best practices and design principles.
In earlier versions of Oracle Fusion Cloud, personalisation options were somewhat limited. However, with Redwood UX, Oracle is progressively enhancing customisation capabilities across all pillars, starting with CX and HCM Cloud. Today, the scope for customisation in CX is far broader than in HCM, but the trend indicates a growing flexibility across all applications.
Furthermore, you can build new Redwood applications with the same consistent look and feel as Oracle-delivered pages, bring together data from multiple pillars without complex integrations, and embed them seamlessly within Oracle Fusion Cloud.
As someone who has developed multiple comprehensive new Redwood applications and extended Oracle Fusion Cloud apps using Redwood design, I can confidently say that there are methods to ensure that custom solutions remain unaffected by quarterly upgrades while delivering substantial business value. This has been evident from the Redwood extensions we developed over the past four years—we began working on these even before the general release of Redwood in Oracle Fusion Cloud Apps through early adopter programs.

While the shift towards extensibility is exciting, it’s crucial to approach it with a well-thought-out strategy. Poorly designed and developed customisations can still lead to maintenance challenges and upgrade risks. However, when built according to Redwood extensibility best practices and design principles in Oracle Fusion Cloud, you can innovate without disrupting core functionality and minimise risks from quarterly updates.

Not every idea needs to come to life with a custom solution, but every idea should be validated. Before committing resources to a custom development initiative:
