terraform-aws-elasticache-redis

Terraform module to provision an ElastiCache Redis Cluster

This project is part of our comprehensive "SweetOps" approach towards DevOps.

It's 100% Open Source and licensed under the APACHE2.

We literally have hundreds of terraform modules that are Open Source and well-maintained. Check them out!

Usage

Important We do not pin modules to versions in our examples because of the difficulty of keeping the versions in the documentation in sync with the latest released versions. We highly recommend that in your code you pin the version to the exact version you are using so that your infrastructure remains stable, and update versions in a systematic way so that they do not catch you by surprise.

Disruptive changes introduced at version 0.41.0. If upgrading from an earlier version, see migration notes for details.

Note that this uses secure defaults. One of the ways this module can trip users up is with transit_encryption_enabled which is true by default. With this enabled, one does not simply redis-cli in without setting up an stunnel. Amazon provides good documentation on how to connect with it enabled. If this is not desired behavior, set transit_encryption_enabled=false.

This module creates, by default, a new security group for the Elasticache Redis Cluster. When a configuration change (for example, a different security group name) cannot be applied to the security group, Terraform will replace that security group with a new one with the new configuration. In order to allow Terraform to fully manage the security group, you should not place any other resources in (or associate any other resources with) the security group this module creates. Also, in order to keep things from breaking when this module replaces the security group, you should not reference the created security group anywhere else (such as in rules in other security groups). If you want to associate the cluster with a more stable security group that you can reference elsewhere, create that security group outside this module (perhaps with terraform-aws-security-group) and pass the security group ID in via associated_security_group_ids.

Note about zone_id: Previously, zone_id was a string. This caused problems (see #82). Now zone_id should be supplied as a list(string), either empty or with exactly 1 zone ID in order to avoid the problem.

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.
