Managing your Aiven infrastructure with Terraform

This code sample sets up an open source data infrastructure on the Aiven platform using Terraform, consisting of a PostgreSQL® instance sending metrics to InfluxDB®, which can be visualized with Grafana®.

Read more about this setup on the Managing your Aiven infrastructure with Terraform article.

For more information, check the Aiven Terraform Provider official documentation.

Prerequisites

• Terraform, at least v0.13
• Aiven account

Running it

Populate the terraform.tfvars file with your Aiven access token and project name.

To create the infrastructure, run the following commands:

$ terraform plan
$ terraform apply

Connecting to PostgreSQL

To connect to the deployed PostgreSQL instance, run the following command:

$ psql "$(terraform output -raw postgresql_service_uri)"

Visualizing metrics with Grafana

Run the following command to find the Grafana URL, username and password:

$ terraform output -raw grafana_service_uri
$ terraform output -raw grafana_service_username
$ terraform output -raw grafana_service_password

Open the Grafana URL in your web browser with the outputted username and password.

Clean up

To destroy the infrastructure, set the termination_protection flag under the PostgreSQL resource to false and run the command below:

$ terraform destroy
