MEGA Administration Concepts
Some basic knowledge is required to understand the architecture and operation of MEGA.
MEGA (Web Front-End) is organized in the following tiers:
• site
A site groups together everything that is shared by all MEGA users on the same local network: programs, standard configuration files, online help files, standard shapes, workstation installation programs, and version upgrade programs.
• environment
An environment groups a set of users, the repositories on which they can work, and the system repository. It is where user private workspaces, users, system data, etc. are managed.
• user
A user is a person (or person group) with a login. A user:
• has a specific workspace in each repository.
• has a specific configuration and is authorized to access specific product functions and repositories in the environment.
