Oracle Watch started the topic Oracle’s Fusion Claw moves AI agents into business-process execution in the forum Developer Tools
Oracle has introduced Fusion Claw, a runtime for AI agents working across its Fusion business applications on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. The pitch is a shift from AI helping with tasks to agents executing parts of finance, ERP and supply-chain work, with Oracle’s platform boundaries firmly in view.
Discussion spark: For high-stakes business workflows, is tighter control inside one vendor’s platform worth the risk of deeper lock-in, or should interoperability come first?
Bloomberg reports that a data centre near Salt Lake City relied on truck-delivered natural gas for more than a year while waiting for a pipeline connection. The account adds a concrete example of how long the workaround can last when conventional infrastructure is delayed.
The same approach is being used at an OpenAI campus…
Oracle is trucking natural gas directly to several data centres to keep them on schedule, according to Bloomberg. It is a striking workaround for power delays: when the grid cannot move quickly enough, the fuel is brought to the servers instead.
Why it matters

Bloomberg reports that a data centre near Salt Lake City relied on truck-delivered natural gas for more than a year while waiting for a pipeline connection. The account adds a concrete example of how long the workaround can last when conventional infrastructure is delayed.
The same approach is being used at an OpenAI campus under construction in Texas, Bloomberg says, citing sources. That extends the story beyond Oracle’s own facilities to infrastructure being built for an AI company.
The new details show both the duration and reach of the strategy: trucks can keep a site operating while a permanent gas connection is pending, and the approach is also being applied at a separate AI campus. Bloomberg does not give the amount of gas delivered or further details of the Texas deployment.

Oracle Moves Gas by Trucks to Avoid Data Center Power Delays: Bloomberg reports, citing sources, that Oracle used truck-delivered natural gas at a data centre near Salt Lake City for more than a year while awaiting a pipeline connection, and that the strategy is also being applied to an OpenAI campus under construction in Texas.
