[@mukeshsharma24234]

Great video Tariq bhai !

[@InfiniteLinux]

Mukesh Sharma thanks bhai

One confusion: How does it work in real time scenarios? like do we install terraform on EC2 servers and then manage everything or we install on local systems? in case of running terraform on EC2, wouldn't it be difficult to code on vi editors? or we code in local system and copy the content to EC2 servers, like how to maintain modules on EC2 servers

[@InfiniteLinux]

In real life you would never actually go on the server and put your terraform templates, you would need to build some kind of CI/CD pipeline, where you have your templates in in Git, you make changes, get it reviewed by your peers, make a pull request, once approved, a CICD pipeline will get triggered to create your resources

@@InfiniteLinux Thanks

[@ashokbabunelluri5785]

how can we rollback to providers in terraform ?

[@InfiniteLinux]

Hi Ashok, I didnt understand your questions, but I think you mean how to roll back once you do terraform apply right? So in terraform there is no direct command to roll back, but you if you are version controlling your plans, you can roll back to a previous plan.

[@narendrakumarpokala3007]

Can you do a video that can skip the providers registration in azure

[@InfiniteLinux]

Sure Narendra, thanks for the suggestion
