A Zone Types represents a particular type of zone with a specific behavior. For example, a data explorer zone type is used to select data using a specific SQL statement and display the data based on parameter configuration.

The base product supports many zone types used to build the portal / zone user interface. Implementations may introduce their own zone types.
