Small-size infrastructure with Terraform

Source: https://github.com/antonbabenko/terraform-best-practices/tree/master/examples/small-terraform

This example contains code as an example of structuring Terraform configurations for a small-size infrastructure, where no external dependencies are used.

  • Perfect to get started and refactor as you go

  • Perfect for small resource modules

  • Good for small and linear infrastructure modules (eg, terraform-aws-atlantis)

  • Good for a small number of resources (fewer than 20-30)

Single state file for all resources can make the process of working with Terraform slow if the number of resources is growing (consider using an argument -target to limit the number of resources)
