GitHub - cloudposse/terraform-aws-documentdb-cluster: Terraform module to provision a DocumentDB cluster on AWS

Terraform module to provision an Amazon DocumentDB cluster.

Tip

👽 Use Atmos with Terraform

Cloud Posse uses atmos to easily orchestrate multiple environments using Terraform.
Works with Github Actions, Atlantis, or Spacelift.

Watch demo of using Atmos with Terraform

Example of running atmos to manage infrastructure from our Quick Start tutorial.

Usage

For a complete example, see examples/complete.

For automated tests of the complete example using bats and Terratest (which tests and deploys the example on AWS), see test.

module "documentdb_cluster" {
  source = "cloudposse/documentdb-cluster/aws"
  # Cloud Posse recommends pinning every module to a specific version
  # version = "x.x.x"
  namespace               = "eg"
  stage                   = "testing"
  name                    = "docdb"
  cluster_size            = 3
  master_username         = "admin1"
  master_password         = "Test123456789"
  instance_class          = "db.r4.large"
  vpc_id                  = "vpc-xxxxxxxx"
  subnet_ids              = ["subnet-xxxxxxxx", "subnet-yyyyyyyy"]
  allowed_security_groups = ["sg-xxxxxxxx"]
  zone_id                 = "Zxxxxxxxx"
}

Important

In Cloud Posse's examples, we avoid pinning modules to specific versions to prevent discrepancies between the documentation and the latest released versions. However, for your own projects, we strongly advise pinning each module to the exact version you're using. This practice ensures the stability of your infrastructure. Additionally, we recommend implementing a systematic approach for updating versions to avoid unexpected changes.
