A portlet is information that is placed within a region on a page. All portlets come from a data source registered with OracleAS Portal, called a portlet provider. OracleAS Portal itself is a portlet provider, because certain aspects of the product have been made available so that you can include them on your own pages. This snapshot of the Portal Builder page, for example, shows three portlets, all from OracleAS Portal:

By selecting the appropriate OracleAS Portal portlet provider, you can place any of the portlets shown in this snapshot on your own pages. OracleAS Portal also provides other portlet providers so that you can make most OracleAS Portal objects available to your pages as well. To see the complete list of objects you can place in a region, click Add Portlets while editing a page.
