    10  
    11  Terraform Enterprise stores the state of your managed infrastructure from the
    12  last time Terraform was run. The state is stored remotely, which works better in a
    13  team environment, allowing you to store, version and collaborate on state.
    14  
    15  Remote state gives you more than just easier version control and safer storage.
    16  It also allows you to delegate the outputs to other teams. This allows your
    17  infrastructure to be more easily broken down into components that multiple teams
    18  can access.
    19  
    20  Remote state is automatically updated when you run [`apply`](/docs/commands/apply.html)
    21  locally. It is also updated when an `apply` is executed in a [Terraform Enterprise
    22  Run](/docs/enterprise/runs/index.html).
