Creating a module in Terraform - Getting started with Terraform Modules (part 1)

#terraform #devops #infrastructureascode
Once you start seeing patterns in your infrastructure that repeat, e.g. the creation of VPCs, it is time to look at abstracting them into reusable blocks. These are modules in Terraform. This session covers how to create a basic module, looks at defining the inputs (variables) and outputs to it. We then use the module to create our Amazon EC2 instance. The 2nd part of this session will show how to store your module in a git repo, and add versioning.
