# Workspaces
Each Terraform configuration has an associated [backend](/language/settings/backends) that defines how Terraform executes operations where Terraform stores persistent data, like [Terraform state](/language/state/purpose).
Each Terraform configuration has an associated [backend](/language/settings/backends) that defines how Terraform executes operations and where Terraform stores persistent data, like [state](/language/state/purpose).
The persistent data stored in the backend belongs to a workspace. The backend initially has only one workspace containing one Terraform state associated with that configuration. Some backends support multiple named workspaces, allowing multiple states to be associated with a single configuration. The configuration still has only one backend, but you can deploy multiple distinct instances of that configuration without configuring a new backend or changing authentication
credentials.
