What we are building

A cloud account with two identity domains, environments listed across them, regions assigned, and a user signing in with the right scope. That is what you will have at the end of this module. The chain that produces it: cloud account → region → identity domain → compartment → environment → users → business process. Everything downstream in this course hangs off this. This is the longest module in the phase and the first flagship, and both of those are because of one property: most of what you decide here cannot be changed later. What to have open: console access if you have it, the design template, and a notepad. On the follow-along path: the screenshot guide and the design template — and note that the lab assesses your design, which you can do either way.
