When we build infrastructure with terraform configuration, a state file will be created automatically in the local workspace directory named “terraform.tfstate”. This tfstate file will have information about the provisioned infrastructure which terraform manage. Whenever we make changes to the configuration file, it will automatically determine which part of your configuration is already created. And, also it will determine which needs to be changed with the help of the state file.
