Overview
Cohu, a global semiconductor equipment company, unified finance, HR, and supply chain on Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications after multiple acquisitions left it with fragmented systems. Embedded AI supports real-time reporting across work orders and procurement and flags supply chain exceptions, while Oracle Fusion Cloud Product Lifecycle Management reviews product data for completeness and identifies process bottlenecks affecting launches.

Inspect the highlighted sourceThe challenge
As Cohu expanded through acquisitions, it inherited multiple operational systems for finance, HR, procurement, and supply chain, sometimes more than one in the same region; fragmented data and manual reconciliation slowed forecasting, reporting, and collaboration, and increasing product, part, and SKU complexity became increasingly difficult to manage, impacting new product development, launches, and customer orders.
The solution
Cohu adopted Oracle Fusion Cloud Applications and deployed Oracle Fusion Cloud Supply Chain and Manufacturing to bring operations onto an integrated cloud platform. Embedded AI supports real-time reporting across work orders and procurement and flags supply chain exceptions, while Oracle Fusion Cloud Product Lifecycle Management reviews product data for completeness and identifies process bottlenecks affecting launches and issue resolution. Cohu also uses Oracle Configure, Price, Quote in Oracle Fusion Cloud Sales for lead-to-order cycles, and Oracle Fusion Service and Oracle Field Service to help technicians respond to customer needs.

Supermetrics: Helping Marketers Redefine Efficiency with AI-Powered Data Analysis
Supermetrics, a Finland-based marketing intelligence platform serving 15,000+ customers across 132 countries, built an AI agent on Google Cloud using Vertex AI Agent Builder and the Agent Development Kit (ADK) that autonomously manages data connections, fixes pipeline errors, and analyzes campaign performance in real time, suggesting new creative options using Imagen. The agent automates the weekly marketing reporting cycle that previously took performance marketers up to four hours, reclaiming over 15 hours per month per marketer for strategy and creative testing. The system uses a central AI agent that interprets natural language requests and delegates tasks to sub-agents, and stores 'core memories' of user preferences for personalized context.
