A company runs identical web workloads in AWS and Azure to meet disaster recovery requirements. The platform team wants to manage both environments with a single workflow, using the same variable definitions and module structure for each provider. What should they do to achieve this with Terraform?

Write a custom abstraction layer that translates HCL into each cloud's native API calls.

Use a single Terraform configuration with provider blocks for both AWS and Azure, and use modules parameterized by provider-specific variables.

Create separate Terraform configurations for each cloud and run them independently.

Use Terraform Cloud only for AWS and manage Azure with a separate tool like ARM templates.

A team uses Terraform to manage resources on AWS, Azure, and GitHub. They want to ensure that all changes go through the same review and approval process. What is the best way to achieve this?

Use Terraform Cloud's API to manually approve each change.

Use a single Terraform configuration with all providers and use a version control system for code review.

Use separate Terraform configurations for each provider and review them independently.

Use a CI/CD pipeline that runs Terraform apply automatically without review.

What does Terraform enable in a hybrid cloud architecture?

It replaces the need for on-premises infrastructure by moving everything to the cloud.

It provides a unified workflow to provision and manage resources across on-premises and cloud environments.

It automatically migrates workloads between on-premises and cloud based on demand.

It creates a single virtual network that spans on-premises and cloud.

A company runs a multi-cloud architecture with workloads in AWS and GCP. They want to ensure that the same Terraform workflow (init, plan, apply) is used for both clouds, and that changes are reviewed through the same code review process. What is the primary advantage of using Terraform for this multi-cloud setup?

It automatically syncs resources between AWS and GCP.

It eliminates the need for cloud-specific credentials.

It provides a single language and workflow for managing infrastructure across multiple clouds.

It allows you to write one configuration that works for both AWS and GCP without any provider-specific code.

A company runs workloads in its own data center and also uses AWS. They want to manage both environments with Terraform. What is the key requirement for Terraform to manage on-premises resources?

A provider that can interact with the on-premises platform's API, such as vSphere or Hyper-V.

A dedicated Terraform Enterprise instance must be installed in the data center.

A VPN connection between the data center and AWS is required for Terraform to work.

The on-premises resources must be migrated to the cloud first.
