Terraform state file 🔐

Description

Terraform stores the information of the execution (apply or destroy) in a special file called tfstate. This is file is critical for future provisioning of the infrastructure as it is the absolute reference of which resource has been deployed or not.

🛡️ Refer to the remote backend page for detailed information on how to configure and manage your state files in Brainboard.

🎒 Refer to our training session if you want to understand how Terraform works and how the tfstate is used.
