Terraform Associate Exam - Question 25


Terraform requires the Go runtime as a prerequisite for installation.

Show Answer
Correct Answer: B

Terraform is written in the Go programming language, but it does not require the Go runtime to be installed on the machine where Terraform is installed. To use Terraform, you only need to download and install the Terraform binary appropriate for your operating system, and then add it to your PATH. Therefore, the Go runtime is not a prerequisite for installing and running Terraform.

Terraform is written in Go programming language, but it does not require the Go runtime to be installed on the machine where Terraform is installed. You only need to have the Terraform binary installed to be able to use Terraform to provision infrastructure. You can download the appropriate binary for your operating system from the Terraform website, and then add it to your PATH so that you can run Terraform from the command line.
