A Terraform configuration includes both an AWS provider block and an AzureRM provider block. What does this configuration demonstrate?

Using a provider that is not required by any resource

Using multiple providers in a single configuration

Using provider aliases for the same provider

Using a single provider with multiple configurations

A Terraform configuration uses the AWS provider with a default block and an alias 'secondary'. The default block sets region to us-east-1, and the alias sets region to eu-west-1. A resource block does not specify a provider argument. In which region will the resource be created?

Terraform will error because the provider is ambiguous.

A configuration uses two providers: AWS and Azure. A resource block for an Azure resource group accidentally includes provider = aws. What will happen when terraform plan is run?

Terraform will error because the resource type does not belong to the specified provider.

Terraform will create the resource group using the AWS provider.

Terraform will ignore the provider argument and use the default Azure provider.

Terraform will create the resource group in AWS as an S3 bucket.

A Terraform configuration uses the AWS provider with a default block and an alias 'replica'. The default block is missing the region argument, but the environment variable AWS_DEFAULT_REGION is set to us-west-2. The alias block sets region to us-east-1. A resource that does not specify a provider will be created in which region?

Terraform will error because the default provider has no region.

us-east-1, from the alias block

The resource will be created in both regions.

us-west-2, from the environment variable

A configuration uses the AzureRM provider with two aliases: 'prod' and 'dev'. The 'prod' alias uses a service principal with production credentials, and 'dev' uses a different service principal. A resource group must be created in the 'dev' subscription. What is the correct provider argument?

subscription_id = var.dev_subscription_id
