This document discusses the challenges of managing data for Oracle E-Business Suite (EBS) applications in cloud environments. It covers traditional EBS data loading and interfacing processes, and how moving to the cloud impacts data management. The document advocates for using a scalable, service-oriented data management tool that is front-end independent, supports drag-and-drop data mapping, and can flexibly deploy on-premise or in the cloud. It concludes that such a tool provides the best return on investment and productivity for EBS data management in modern IT environments.
