Terminology
3 minute read
| Asset | A content item that you manage using Eloqua, for example, articles, product descriptions, advertisements, photos, and video clips. Assets are instances of asset types. |
| Asset type | An object that you use to create assets of that type. An asset type is represented by a content entry form, where the set of fields define the type of content you will provide. For example, an Article asset type may have fields “Headline,” “Abstract,” “Author,” “Post Date,” and “Body,” which are the content that composes the article. |
| CloudBroker | Lionbridge’s server application for hosting the Lionbridge App for Oracle Eloqua. As a SaaS (Software as a Service), Eloqua does not support installing the Lionbridge App or any other external applications on its server. Therefore, the Lionbridge App is hosted on the Lionbridge CloudBroker server. |
| Freeway | The name of the Lionbridge translation portal for submitting content to and retrieving content from the Lionbridge translation provider. |
| FTP Server | File Transfer Protocol (FTP) is a standard network protocol used to transfer files from one host to another host over a TCP-based network, such as the Internet. Translation providers may receive and send files for translation using an FTP server. |
| Keys | The Lionbridge App uses keys to establish a secure, discrete connection between the app instance and the Platform. Very important: Do not copy the CMS address keys to multiple instances, because this is a violation of the License Agreement. Using the same CMS address keys on multiple instances will cause the Lionbridge App or Connector to behave unexpectedly, which can result in lost translation content, orphaned projects, and inaccurate translation status reports. The Lionbridge Connector team will support technical issues caused by duplicating or incorrectly installing CMS address keys only on a time and materials basis. |
| Lionbridge | The publisher of the Freeway translation portal and a translation provider. Users connect to the Freeway translation portal to submit content to and retrieve content from the Lionbridge translation provider. |
| Lionbridge App for Oracle Eloqua (App) | The software that Lionbridge has developed and provides, which plugs into your Eloqua environment to provide connectivity to CloudBroker and our hosted Platform. In this document it is referred to as the Lionbridge App. This is the software you set up as you work through this guide. |
| MT | Machine translation. The translation provider can be a machine translation service, such as Google Translate. |
| Producer | CMS or another content system that sends content or documents out for translation. In this case, this is Eloqua. |
| Provider | A provider of translation services. The delivery of assets to the provider may be via an FTP server or a TMS connector. |
| SDL TMS | SDL Translation Management System™ is a global information management application. |
| Site | A site is your company’s implementation of the Lionbridge App for Oracle Eloqua. |
| Support Asset | Supporting documents and their metadata. Support assets are not translated by the translation provider, but they provide helpful context for the translator. |
| TMS | Translation management system that the translation provider uses. |
