Exam Terraform Associate topic 1 question 119 discussion

Answer is False. Only modules considered "Verified Modules" are reviewed by Hashicorp, otherwise anyone can publish modules on the Terraform Registry. Reference: https://www.terraform.io/registry/modules/verified https://www.terraform.io/registry/modules/publish

https://developer.hashicorp.com/terraform/registry/modules/verified

False Verified modules are expected to be actively maintained by HashiCorp partners. The verified badge isn’t indicative of flexibility or feature support; very simple modules can be verified just because they're great examples of modules. Likewise, an unverified module could be extremely high quality and actively maintained. An unverified module shouldn't be assumed to be poor quality, it only means it hasn't been created by a HashiCorp partner. https://developer.hashicorp.com/terraform/registry/modules/verified

B is correct

B. False A verified badge will usually appear on modules that are verified by Hashicorp. However, you can use filters to view unverified modules.

True because When you submit your module, HashiCorp will review it to ensure that it meets the quality standards for the Terraform Module Registry. This review process includes checks for compliance with Terraform's best practices, security vulnerabilities, and other potential issues that could impact the stability or security of the infrastructure being provisioned with Terraform. If your module meets these standards and passes the verification process, it can be listed on the official Terraform Module Registry with the HashiCorp Verified badge.

False, It's not mandatory. If Hashicorp verified then it will show Blue tick at the end, Otherwise not. But it's not mandatory verification by hashicorp

B. False While the Terraform Module Registry contains many useful modules, not all modules are verified by HashiCorp. Verified modules are indicated by a special badge on the module's page. These modules have been reviewed and approved by HashiCorp to ensure they follow best practices and are of high quality. Other modules in the registry are created and maintained by the community, and while they may be helpful, they have not gone through the same verification process. Always exercise caution and review the module's documentation and source code before using it in your infrastructure.

Seems B to me

The modules available on the official Terraform Module Registry have been reviewed by HashiCorp to ensure that they follow best practices and are compatible with Terraform. HashiCorp also provides support and guidance for users of the Module Registry.

B. False The Terraform Module Registry is a public repository of modules created and shared by the community, it's not maintained by Hashicorp. These modules have not been verified by HashiCorp, and they may not have undergone any kind of security or quality review. It's important to review the code and the documentation of the modules and also check if the author is trustworthy before using it in your infrastructure. Although, Hashicorp provides a way to submit a module to the community and it goes through a review process to be added to the verified module list. It's also important to check the module's version, release date, and the number of downloads before using it. It's a good practice to use a module from a verified publisher or a module that is widely used and well-maintained. It's also worth noting that you can use modules from other sources like GitHub, GitLab, or any other VCS. These modules may have been reviewed and validated by other organizations or communities, but they are not part of the official Terraform module registry.

A is the correct one coz here its saying about the official hasi corp

A is the correct answer. Read: verified modules are reviewed by HashiCorp and actively maintained by contributors to stay up-to-date and compatible with Terraform and their respective providers. The verified badge appears next to modules published by a verified source. Verified modules are expected to be actively maintained by HashiCorp partners. The verified badge isn’t indicative of flexibility or feature support; very simple modules can be verified just because they're great examples of modules. Likewise, an unverified module could be extremely high quality and actively maintained. An unverified module shouldn't be assumed to be poor quality, it only means it hasn't been created by a HashiCorp partner. https://developer.hashicorp.com/terraform/registry/modules/verified

https://www.terraform.io/registry/modules/verified A is the right answer

Terraform public regstry has community modules, which are not verified by Hashicorp

B. Not all modules published are verified by HashiCorp.
