Using templatefile in Terraform

Templates in Terraform are a way to create long strings based on values stored in your Terraform configuration or generated by data sources and resources. The traditional approach was to use the template_file data source, but newer versions of Terraform have the templatefile function. Why would you use the newer function, and when would you use templates at all. Those are some of the questions I'll try to answer in this video.
