The `remote-exec` provisioner invokes a script on a remote resource after it is created. This can be used to run a configuration management tool, bootstrap into a cluster, etc. To invoke a local process, see the `local-exec` provisioner instead. The `remote-exec` provisioner supports both `ssh` and `winrm` type connections.
