Deploy static web application to AWS using Terraform

Be informed that resources creation in AWS is not free, do not forget to destroy it when you're done.

Requirements

• AWS account
• AWS CLI
• Terraform (~>1.1)
• Unix

Prerequisites

1. Configure an AWS profile or use existing with proper credentials (us-east-1 region, admin access is preferred or full access to VPC, IAM, AWSNetworkManager, EC2, S3, RDS, AmazonSSM and other resources):

   aws configure --profile profile_name
   export AWS_PROFILE=profile_name

2. Create or use default workspace (supported Development, UAT or Production):

   terraform workspace list
   # terraform workpace new Development && terraform select Development
   # terraform workpace new UAT && terraform select UAT
   # terraform workpace new Production && terraform select Production

3. Initialize a working directory containing Terraform configuration files:

   terraform init

4. Create an execution plan, which lets you preview the changes that Terraform plans to make to your infrastructure:

   terraform plan -out webapp_default.tfplan

5. Execute the actions proposed in a Terraform plan and wait until it's done:

   terraform apply webapp_default.tfplan

6. Check the outputs and follow by the web app link:

7. Destroy all remote objects managed by current workspace configuration:

   terraform workspace list
   terraform destroy -auto-approve
