## Core concepts
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Driftctl uses Terraform providers besides cloud providers SDK to retrieve data.
|
||
|
|
Resource listing is done using cloud providers SDK, then resource details retrieval is done by calling the terraform provider with gRPC.
|
||
|

|
|
## Terminology
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- `Scanner` Scanner is used to scan multiples cloud providers and return a set of resources. It calls every declared `Supplier`.
|
||
|
|
- `Remote` A remote is a representation of a cloud provider
|
||
|
|
- `Resource` A resource is an abstract representation of a cloud provider resource (e.g. S3 bucket, EC2 instance, etc ...)
|
||
|
|
- `ResourceSupplier` It should exist only one ResourceSupplier per resource. A ResourceSupplier is used to list resources from a given type on a given remote and return a resource list.
