Datasources contd

Replace

• Taint is deprecated and is replaced with terraform apply --replace <resource-id>
• Taint during apply will delete and create the resource

Terraform Steps to create infra

1. terraform creates a plan (calculating drift)
2. terraform performs refresh to get current state of what we have on the provider
3. now terraform looks at difference between what is written in tf files vs latest refresh
4. difference becomes a plan
5. Summary Apply = refresh + plan + apply
