• Temporary id: it is an internal string that is generated automatically for preview option in EBX.Manager (and for tests). It is not part of public API.
• Internal key: it is a composite key designed for cache performance and for holding UUID. It is not part of public API.

An adaptation is retrieved by calling method AdaptationHome.findAdaptationOrNull(AdaptationName).
