An instance can contain multiple web sites. Each web site can contain pages for multiple languages and locales (i.e. regions). OSGI configurations are global (i.e. they apply universally across the entire instance) and are used to control things like how many old versions of a page to keep as a page goes through modifications or edits. Most OSGI configurations can be as loose or as tight as you want them to be. If they are loose, they allow more control at the individual web site level. If they are tight, they allow less control at the individual web site level. All remaining elements of an AEM setup, such as user groups and users, assets (images, videos, PDFs), OSGI bundles, code, templates, components, rollout configurations, workflows, integrations, etc. can be seamlessly made available across an instance. Individual web sites can choose to reuse them or create their own. Reuse is easier across a single instance but also achieved easily enough across multiple instances via ...
