In this lesson, we will deploy and destroy an Oracle Kubernetes Engine (OKE) Basic Cluster using OpenTofu. We begin by running tofu init, which initializes the Terraform environment and downloads necessary provider plugins. Next, we use tofu apply, referencing our terraform.tfvars file to authenticate with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) and deploy resources.
