5. resource "compute_instance" "os101_website" { count = 10 image = "rhel-7.0" type = "small" has_public_ip = true region = "us-east-nc" } Infrastructure as Code server.tf
6. resource "compute_instance" "os101_website" { count = 10 image = var.image type = var.type has_public_ip = var.has_public_ip region = var.region } Infrastructure as Code server.tf
7. your code is executable documentation versioned code supports collaboration workflows become safer and more predictable code is text and can be versioned Recap
