## Provider Configuration

```hcl
terraform {

    aws = {
      source  = "hashicorp/aws"
      version = "~> 5.0"
    }
  }
  
  backend "s3" {
    bucket = "terraform-state"
    key    = "prod/terraform.tfstate"
    region = "us-east-1"
  }
}

  tags = { Name = "main-vpc" }
}

resource "aws_instance" "web" {
  ami           = data.aws_ami.amazon_linux.id
  instance_type = "t3.micro"
  subnet_id     = aws_subnet.public.id
  
  tags = { Name = "web-server" }
}
```
