AWS Aurora DB Cluster & Instance(s) Terraform Module.
Gives you:
- A DB subnet group
- An Aurora DB cluster
- An Aurora DB instance + 'n' number of additional instances
- Optionally RDS 'Enhanced Monitoring' + associated required IAM role/policy (by simply setting the
monitoring_interval
param to >0
- Optionally sensible alarms to SNS (high CPU, high connections, slow replication)
- Optionally configure autoscaling for read replicas (MySQL clusters only)
Ensure any variables you add have a type and a description. This README is generated with terraform-docs:
terraform-docs md . > README.md
It is recommended you always create a parameter group, even if it exactly matches the defaults. Changing the parameter group in use requires a restart of the DB cluster, modifying parameters within a group may not (depending on the parameter being altered)
AWS doesn't automatically remove RDS instances created from autoscaling when you remove the autoscaling rules and this can cause issues when using Terraform to destroy the cluster. To work around this, you should make sure there are no automatically created RDS instances running before attempting to destroy a cluster.
