Key Terms
Portal – A single web based environment where multiple applications can run
and be integrated together. A portal consists of multiple portlets and pages to
provide one unified user experience.
Portlet – A portlet is a piece of software that will run inside of a web portal.
A portlet can be used to pull or push data to other enterprise systems.
Page - A page is a container within a portal that can group logical items
together. Pages can contain both portlets and pages. Access to pages can
also be defined by roles that are setup in the my.bgsu.edu portal.
