Terraform for ML Infrastructure Quiz

Answers and explanations appear as you take the quiz.

1. What does Terraform state primarily track?
   • The relationship between declared resources and remote infrastructure
   • The model's validation accuracy
   • The latest GPU prediction output
   • The Python package graph
2. Which review step shows proposed infrastructure actions before they are applied?
   • Guarantee cloud capacity at apply time
   • Inspect proposed infrastructure changes before applying them
   • Validate model fairness automatically
   • Replace remote state
3. Why protect remote Terraform state?
   • It guarantees GPU availability
   • It contains only public source code
   • It can contain sensitive values and is needed to manage resources reliably
   • It replaces provider credentials
4. Why might a valid GPU plan still fail during apply?
   • State automatically creates cloud stock
   • Terraform plans are always stale by definition
   • The GPU model determines Python syntax
   • Regional capacity or account quota may be unavailable
5. What does setting a variable as sensitive guarantee?
   • That the secret is encrypted in every backend
   • Display redaction, not automatic removal from state
   • That no provider can read it
   • That it is omitted from all logs and files
6. Why separate model validation from infrastructure provisioning?
   • Model evaluation changes cloud regions
   • Terraform cannot reference container images
   • Terraform can create resources without determining whether a model is fit to deploy
   • Infrastructure plans contain no resources
7. What should a team do with a plan that includes destructive production actions?
   • Remove backups first
   • Apply automatically because Terraform calculated it
   • Ignore state and repeat the apply
   • Inspect affected resources, dependencies and recovery needs before applying
8. Why use narrow apply permissions in production?
   • It limits who can make infrastructure changes
   • It makes every plan smaller
   • It prevents all provider outages
   • It removes the need for source review
