00:00hello guys welcome to naresha technologies in this video i'm going to talk about what is the
00:04meaning of depends on so generally if i want to create server first and bucket next so in that
00:11case terraform will not follow the behavior by default but if i want to interlink two resources
00:17let's say i want to create my server after my bucket got created or i want to create my bucket
00:24after server got created so if i want to link two different resources in that case i can use
00:29depends on okay here one resource creation will be depending on other resource and this is called
00:34as a explicit dependency so in order to make the difference between implicit dependency and explicit
00:42dependency you need to observe the flag depends on let's say if you are seeing depends on that is
00:48nothing but explicit dependency but if you are never seeing depends on that is going to be called as
00:53implicit dependency so in examination point of view out of implicit and explicit one question
00:59will come as a damn sure so thank you
