Q: What is your approach to implementing a GitOps model for infrastructure delivery using Terraform?

> 1. Store all Terraform HCL code in version-controlled repositories. 2. Set up a GitOps controller (like **Flux TF-Controller** or **Terraform Cloud**) that polls the Git repository. 3. When a commit is merged to `main`, the controller automatically runs `terraform apply` in a secure runner, keeping the cloud environment synced with Git without manual shell intervention.
