Managing Terraform state is crucial for maintaining consistency, collaboration, and security in infrastructure as code (IaC) deployments. As organizations grow, handling Terraform state efficiently across teams, projects, and environments becomes increasingly complex. Teams risk state corruption, security vulnerabilities, and operational inefficiencies without proper management.

In this session, you'll discover:
- How Terraform state works and why remote state management is essential
- Best practices for securely storing and managing state in Azure using storage accounts
- Key design principles for structuring Terraform state storage to support projects of any size
- How to ensure scalability, access control, and resilience in multi-team environments

By the end of this talk, you will be able to:
- Design a robust Terraform state management strategy tailored to your organization
- Implement a scalable storage architecture that balances security and flexibility
- Streamline Terraform workflows with Azure-native security and governance features
