An Output encodes the relationship between infrastructure resources and a Pulumi application, by holding onto a piece of data and the resource it was generated from. When a consumer resource needs a piece of data generated by a provider resource, the consumer resource gets the Output of the provider resource, allowing it to know both the data value, and the provider resource it came from. This allows building a resource dependency graph, which Pulumi used to track dependencies between resources.
