Oracle Cloud Infrastructure 2019 Developer Associate — Question 52

What does Terraform use to create, manage, and manipulate infrastructure resources?

Answer options

• A. resources
• B. provisioner
• C. instances
• D. provider

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is 'provider' because providers are responsible for interacting with cloud platforms and services to create and manage resources. The other options, such as 'resources', 'provisioner', and 'instances', are components used within Terraform but do not encompass the overall capability to manage infrastructure like providers do.
