Thanks Maharajan.

I have another query please.

Is the salesforce portals and community cloud the same? If not what are the different portals available?
Please could you also share any link for more info on this?

Thanks,
Carrol

Hi Maharajan,

Another quick query regarding licenses. I went through the links you shared.
1. Is it the same license (Salesforce) for Sales cloud and Service cloud these being the Apps? This is not listed in the links shared. Please could you confirm?
2. I came accross the Ligthing platform license in few places. This is not mentioned in the links you have shared. Please could you provide more info on this one too please?

Thanks,
Carrol
