Portlets can have all kinds of functionality from web content presentation to application functionality to just a
pretty picture.
Organization
A grouping of people based on an organization chart (think schools, partner organizations, country coordinator
organizations)
Community
A grouping of people based on a common interest. Typically has collaboration components associated with it.
(Think everyone who is involved with SCRC, or everyone who is interested in the Atmospheres investigation
area)
Role
A set of permissions which define what a user can do. There are portal permissions, organization permissions,
community permissions and many more. This is the heart of the security model for the portal. (think content
contributor versus content approver, versus the portal administrator)
User Group
A way to group people by some common definition. Doesn’t have any inherit permissions or capability – just a
way to group people together to be used by admin or programmers.
(people who are trained, teacher, partners, scientists etc)
