What is the collection tile/portlet?

A collection tile/portlet is an automatically populating tile that will constantly keep itself up to date with the content that you would like to show on it so that you do not have to make manual updates. The collection tile/portlet is able to aggregate multiple different types of content from across your website. For example, you may wish for the tile/portlet to pull in all items of content that are tagged with a specific category on your website.
