A cloud engineer wants to deploy a new application to the cloud and is writing the following script:

Which of the following actions will this script perform?
Correct Answer: B
The script shown is written in Terraform, which is an infrastructure as code (IaC) tool used for building, changing, and versioning infrastructure safely and efficiently. This particular Terraform script specifies a required provider and its version, the Terraform version, sets the cloud provider's region, and then defines a resource for a server instance with a specific AMI ID and instance type. It also includes tags for the instance. The action this script will perform is to create a new cloud resource, specifically a server instance on the cloud provider's platform.
