In this chapter, we have learned how to get started using IBM® SmartCloud® Enterprise. Before we started building hands-on experience by provisioning both a block storage volume and a virtual machine instance, we covered the resource model including the attributes and relationships.
We also learned how to create a snapshot of an instance to secure our work and allow future reuse. Lastly, we covered the various sources of information that offer valuable instructions and demonstrations to get educated on them even more.
In the next chapter, we will learn some of the more advanced configuration options to support more diverse use-cases in detail, taking your knowledge of IBM® SmartCloud® Enterprise to the next level.
