# About Remote State
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Terraform stores the state of your managed infrastructure from the last
|
||
|
|
time Terraform was run. By default this state is stored in a local file
|
||
|
|
named `terraform.tfstate`, but it can also be stored remotely, which
|
||
|
|
works better in a team environment.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Atlas is a remote state provider, allowing you to store, version and
|
||
|
|
collaborate on state with Atlas.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Remote state gives you more than just easier version control and safer
|
||
|
|
storage. It also allows you to delegate the outputs to other teams.
|
||
|
|
This allows your infrastructure to be more easily broken down into
|
||
|
|
components that multiple teams can access.
