• Chose B2

  The remote backend can work with either a single remote HCP Terraform workspace, or with multiple similarly-named remote workspaces (like networking-dev and networking-prod). The workspaces block of the backend configuration determines which mode it uses: To use a single remote HCP Terraform workspace, set workspaces.name to the remote workspace's full name (like networking-prod).

• Chose B1

  A single remote backend configuration can support multiple remote workspaces. In Terraform, remote backends like Terraform Cloud or remote state storage solutions can manage multiple workspaces, each representing a different environment or set of infrastructure, all within the same backend configuration.

• Chose B2

  The remote backend can work with either a single remote Terraform Cloud workspace, or with multiple similarly-named remote workspaces (like networking-dev and networking-prod). The workspaces block of the backend configuration determines which mode it uses: To use a single remote Terraform Cloud workspace, set workspaces.name to the remote workspace's full name (like networking-prod). To use multiple remote workspaces, set workspaces.prefix to a prefix used in all of the desired remote workspace names. For example, set prefix = "networking-" to use Terraform cloud workspaces with names like networking-dev and networking-prod. This is helpful when mapping multiple Terraform CLI workspaces used in a single Terraform configuration to multiple Terraform Cloud workspaces. https://developer.hashicorp.com/terraform/language/settings/backends/remote
