The Terraform collection type that should be used to store key/value pairs is map. A map is a collection of values that are accessed by arbitrary labels, called keys. The keys and values can be of any type, but the keys must be unique within a map. For example, var = { key1 = "value1", key2 = "value2" } is a map with two key/value pairs. Maps are useful for grouping related values together, such as configuration options or metadata. References = [Collection Types], [Map Type Constraints]

Speculative Plans: Terraform Cloud’sspeculative planfeature runs automatically when changes are detected in a linked VCS repository, enabling users to review potential infrastructure changes without committing them.

Automatic Integration: This feature automates the planning process by triggering when changes are committed, aiding teams in previewing infrastructure changes seamlessly.

For further understanding, see theTerraform Cloud VCS Integrationdocumentation.

 If you manually destroy infrastructure, Terraform will automatically detect the change and update the state file during the next plan or apply. Terraform compares the current state of the infrastructure with the desired state in the configuration and generates a plan to reconcile the differences. If a resource is missing from the infrastructure but still exists in the state file, Terraform will attempt to recreate it. If a resource is present in the infrastructure but not in the state file, Terraform will ignore it unless you use the terraform import command to bring it under Terraform’s management. References = [Terraform State]

Terraform’s Indentation Standards: Terraform’s style convention usestwo spaces per nesting levelfor readability, helping to maintain uniform code across teams.

Configuration Files: Consistent indentation is crucial for Terraform’s HCL syntax, as it improves readability and avoids parsing issues.
