Over the last four years, Cassini has comprehensively mapped the low and mid-latitude magnetosphere of Saturn over a wide range of local times. New insights are emerging on the roles of rotation and solar wind in shaping and driving this magnetosphere. New electric current systems and plasma convection systems have been reported and the mystery of rotational signals from its magnetosphere appears to be near conclusion. It is therefore an appropriate time to revisit our knowledge of other magnetospheric systems and compare and contrast Cassini findings with the knowledge gained from other systems. In this presentation we will review the magnetospheric scales and sizes, current sheet shapes and structures, field-aligned current systems, auroral phenomena and plasma convection systems of the outer planet magnetospheres (especially Saturn and Jupiter) to learn the roles of solar wind and internal rotation in shaping these magnetospheres and driving dynamics in them.
