Liferay CMS/ web content management/ workflow/ staging

Liferay out of the box has a web content management system. The web pages can mostly have these web content (articles) as web pages.
The web content resource are organized as below:

In liferay control panel you have the following for CMS:

Article
Holds the content. The article fields can be configured using a structure. Can belong to a type. Can apply a category. Can be tagged. Stored in DB column journalarticle.content as  xml. Web content list and web content article portlets use these articles.

Structure
Defines all the fields the article will have like text input, text area, image input,etc . Also the velocity template can access these fields using the names configured here.

Template
