 ## Introduction
 
-This lab walks you through creating Application and Database Custom Image using the OCI Console. 
+This lab walks you through how to create a thin cloned Oracle Pluggable Database of a Pluggable Database that is created on Exadata Exascale Infrastructure.
 
-  * **Database software images** are resources containing Oracle Database software used to provision and patch Oracle Databases and Oracle Database Homes.
-  * **Database software images** are either **Oracle-published software releases** or **custom software images you create**.
-  * **Custom Database Software Images** include specified patches and updates that meet your organization's standards.
+  * For Pluggable Databases created on the Exadata Database Service on Exascale Infrastructure (**ExaDB-XS**), you can clone an Oracle Pluggable Database as a standard **clone** or as a **thin clone** (***unique to ExaDB-XS***). 
+  * A PDB **clone** is an independent and complete copy of the given database as it existed at the time of the cloning operation. 
+  * A PDB **thin clone** is a special type of the Local Clone, that leverages the Exascale redirect-on-write technology, that allows the thin clone PDB to share unchanged storage blocks with the parent PDB. This results in the fast creation of the thin cloned PDB with reduced space consumption.
+
+ * ***The following types of clones are supported:*** 
+    * ***Local Clone***: A full copy of the PDB that is created within the same CDB. 
+    * ***Thin Clone***: A thin clone copy of the PDB that is created within the same CDB (***Option Only avaiable for Local Clones***). 
+    * ***Remote Clone***: A full copy of the PDB that is created in a different CDB. 
+    * ***Refreshable Clone***: A refreshable clone enables you to keep your remote clone updated with the source PDB. The only open mode you can have is read-only and refresh cannot be done while it is in read-only mode.
