Definition

OracleAS Portal provides many portlets by default to get you started with building your portals. The following table lists the portlets that OracleAS Portal provides by default and where they can be found in the Portlet Repository.

Note: If the portal administrator has reorganized the Portlet Repository, these default portlets may be in different locations within the Portlet Repository.

You can find many more portlets in the OracleAS Portal Catalog. The Catalog includes portlets and services offered by our OracleAS Portal Partners, and you can see the full list of partners and get a brief description of their offerings at http://portalcatalog.oracle.com.
