Resource
Resource is a set of interfaces that enable common operations on items such as pages or blog entries. The interfaces provide organization of resources into a tree-like structure and association with an identifier. No resource details are accessible through this interface and resources are referenced by the generic interface ResourceDescriptor.
Data
The organizational data stored for a resource is independent from the details of the resource itself. The diagram below shows this separation as would be formed in database tables.

In this diagram, resource tables hold the hierarchical structure, but have an external ID that may be used by the actual resource.
