Terraform can store the state remotely, making it easier to version and work with in a team.

# s3
Stores the state as a given key in a given bucket on [Amazon S3](https://aws.amazon.com/s3/).
-> **Note:** Passing credentials directly via config options will
make them included in cleartext inside the persisted state.
Use of environment variables or config file is recommended.
## Example Usage
```
terraform remote config \
-backend=s3 \
-backend-config="bucket=terraform-state-prod" \
-backend-config="key=network/terraform.tfstate" \
-backend-config="region=us-east-1"
```
## Example Referencing
```
resource "terraform_remote_state" "foo" {
backend = "s3"
config {
bucket = "terraform-state-prod"
key = "network/terraform.tfstate"
region = "us-east-1"
}
}
```

* `bucket` - (Required) The name of the S3 bucket
