I’ve ocassionally found Terraform providers that take an attribute and manipulate it in a way that.. isn’t favourable. For some resources, this is probably fine, it maybe an update-in-place and nothing changes.. but in this case, it forces a re-creation and, for a container, this means an outage. And, honestly, I should have created a PR with the provider to handle resolving an image name to a SHA digest and then comparing it before forcing a re-creation.. but hey, sometimes we don’t have time to fix every little thing!
