Question 3

How is the Terraform remote backend different than other state backends such as S3, Consul, etc.?

    Correct Answer: A

    The Terraform remote backend is unique because it can execute Terraform runs on dedicated infrastructure either on premises or in Terraform Cloud. This feature distinguishes it from other state backends like S3 or Consul, which only store state snapshots but don't have the capability to execute Terraform runs.
