Commerce Foundation Site
The Commerce Server 2009 Catalog System is hierarchically organized where Site is the root node. A site commerce entity consists of one or more catalogs, accessible through the catalog's property. In addition to allowing access to catalogs, the site commerce entity provides free text search capabilities across all, or a subset, of its catalogs.
