GitHub - cloudposse/terraform-aws-backup: Terraform module to provision AWS Backup, a fully managed backup service that makes it easy to centralize and automate the back up of data across AWS services such as EBS volumes, RDS databases, DynamoDB tables, EFS file systems, and AWS Storage Gateway volumes.

Terraform module to provision AWS Backup, a fully managed backup service that makes it easy to centralize and automate the back up of data across AWS services such as Amazon EBS volumes, Amazon EC2 instances, Amazon RDS databases, Amazon DynamoDB tables, Amazon EFS file systems, and AWS Storage Gateway volumes.

Note

The syntax of declaring a backup schedule has changed as of release 0.14.0, follow the instructions in the 0.13.x to 0.14.x+ migration guide.

Warning

The deprecated variables have been fully deprecated as of 1.x.x. Please use the new variables as described in the 0.13.x to 0.14.x+ migration guide.

Tip

👽 Use Atmos with Terraform

Cloud Posse uses atmos to easily orchestrate multiple environments using Terraform.
Works with Github Actions, Atlantis, or Spacelift.

Watch demo of using Atmos with Terraform

Example of running atmos to manage infrastructure from our Quick Start tutorial.

Usage

For a complete example on how to backup an Elastic File System (EFS), see examples/complete.

For automated tests of the complete example using bats and Terratest (which tests and deploys the example on AWS), see test.

}

In the above example var.rules could be defined as follows:

rules = [
  {
    name              = "${module.this.name}-daily"
    schedule          = var.schedule
    start_window      = var.start_window
    completion_window = var.completion_window
    lifecycle         = {
      cold_storage_after = var.cold_storage_after
      delete_after       = var.delete_after
    }
  }
]

or as yaml

rules:
  - name: "plan-daily"
    schedule: "cron(0 5 ? * * *)"
    start_window: 320 # 60 * 8             # minutes
    completion_window: 10080 # 60 * 24 * 7 # minutes
    delete_after: 35 # 7 * 5

Important

In Cloud Posse's examples, we avoid pinning modules to specific versions to prevent discrepancies between the documentation and the latest released versions. However, for your own projects, we strongly advise pinning each module to the exact version you're using. This practice ensures the stability of your infrastructure. Additionally, we recommend implementing a systematic approach for updating versions to avoid unexpected changes.

Inputs

Name	Description	Type	Default	Required
additional_tag_map	Additional key-value pairs to add to each map in `tags_as_list_of_maps`. Not added to `tags` or `id`. This is for some rare cases where resources want additional configuration of tags and therefore take a list of maps with tag key, value, and additional configuration.	`map(string)`	`{}`	no
advanced_backup_setting	An object that specifies backup options for each resource type	object({ backup_options = string resource_type = string })	`null`	no
attributes	ID element. Additional attributes (e.g. `workers` or `cluster`) to add to `id`, in the order they appear in the list. New attributes are appended to the end of the list. The elements of the list are joined by the `delimiter` and treated as a single ID element.	`list(string)`	`[]`	no
backup_resources	An array of strings that either contain Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) or match patterns of resources to assign to a backup plan	`list(string)`	`[]`	no
backup_vault_lock_configuration	The backup vault lock configuration, each vault can have one vault lock in place. This will enable Backup Vault Lock on an AWS Backup vault it prevents the deletion of backup data for the specified retention period. During this time, the backup data remains immutable and cannot be deleted or modified." `changeable_for_days` - The number of days before the lock date. If omitted creates a vault lock in `governance` mode, otherwise it will create a vault lock in `compliance` mode.	object({ changeable_for_days = optional(number) max_retention_days = optional(number) min_retention_days = optional(number) })	`null`	no
context	Single object for setting entire context at once. See description of individual variables for details. Leave string and numeric variables as `null` to use default value. Individual variable settings (non-null) override settings in context object, except for attributes, tags, and additional_tag_map, which are merged.	`any`	{ "additional_tag_map": {}, "attributes": [], "delimiter": null, "descriptor_formats": {}, "enabled": true, "environment": null, "id_length_limit": null, "label_key_case": null, "label_order": [], "label_value_case": null, "labels_as_tags": [ "unset" ], "name": null, "namespace": null, "regex_replace_chars": null, "stage": null, "tags": {}, "tenant": null }	no
delimiter	Delimiter to be used between ID elements. Defaults to `-` (hyphen). Set to `""` to use no delimiter at all.	`string`	`null`	no
descriptor_formats	Describe additional descriptors to be output in the `descriptors` output map. Map of maps. Keys are names of descriptors. Values are maps of the form `{<br/> format = string<br/> labels = list(string)<br/>}` (Type is `any` so the map values can later be enhanced to provide additional options.) `format` is a Terraform format string to be passed to the `format()` function. `labels` is a list of labels, in order, to pass to `format()` function. Label values will be normalized before being passed to `format()` so they will be identical to how they appear in `id`. Default is `{}` (`descriptors` output will be empty).	`any`	`{}`	no
enabled	Set to false to prevent the module from creating any resources	`bool`	`null`	no
environment	ID element. Usually used for region e.g. 'uw2', 'us-west-2', OR role 'prod', 'staging', 'dev', 'UAT'	`string`	`null`	no
iam_role_enabled	Should we create a new Iam Role and Policy Attachment	`bool`	`true`	no
iam_role_name	Override target IAM Role Name	`string`	`null`	no
id_length_limit	Limit `id` to this many characters (minimum 6). Set to `0` for unlimited length. Set to `null` for keep the existing setting, which defaults to `0`. Does not affect `id_full`.	`number`	`null`	no
kms_key_arn	The server-side encryption key that is used to protect your backups	`string`	`null`	no
label_key_case	Controls the letter case of the `tags` keys (label names) for tags generated by this module. Does not affect keys of tags passed in via the `tags` input. Possible values: `lower`, `title`, `upper`. Default value: `title`.	`string`	`null`	no
label_order	The order in which the labels (ID elements) appear in the `id`. Defaults to ["namespace", "environment", "stage", "name", "attributes"]. You can omit any of the 6 labels ("tenant" is the 6th), but at least one must be present.	`list(string)`	`null`	no
label_value_case	Controls the letter case of ID elements (labels) as included in `id`, set as tag values, and output by this module individually. Does not affect values of tags passed in via the `tags` input. Possible values: `lower`, `title`, `upper` and `none` (no transformation). Set this to `title` and set `delimiter` to `""` to yield Pascal Case IDs. Default value: `lower`.	`string`	`null`	no
labels_as_tags	Set of labels (ID elements) to include as tags in the `tags` output. Default is to include all labels. Tags with empty values will not be included in the `tags` output. Set to `[]` to suppress all generated tags. Notes: The value of the `name` tag, if included, will be the `id`, not the `name`. Unlike other `null-label` inputs, the initial setting of `labels_as_tags` cannot be changed in later chained modules. Attempts to change it will be silently ignored.	`set(string)`	[ "default" ]	no
name	ID element. Usually the component or solution name, e.g. 'app' or 'jenkins'. This is the only ID element not also included as a `tag`. The "name" tag is set to the full `id` string. There is no tag with the value of the `name` input.	`string`	`null`	no

permissions_boundary	The permissions boundary to set on the role	`string`	`null`	no
plan_enabled	Should we create a new Plan	`bool`	`true`	no
plan_name_suffix	The string appended to the plan name	`string`	`null`	no
regex_replace_chars	Terraform regular expression (regex) string. Characters matching the regex will be removed from the ID elements. If not set, `"/[^a-zA-Z0-9-]/"` is used to remove all characters other than hyphens, letters and digits.	`string`	`null`	no
rules	A list of rule objects used to define schedules in a backup plan. Follows the following structure: yaml rules: - name: "plan-daily" schedule: "cron(0 5 ? * * )" start_window: 320 # 60 8 # minutes completion_window: 10080 # 60 * 24 * 7 # minutes delete_after: 35 # 7 * 5 # days - name: "plan-weekly" schedule: "cron(0 5 ? * SAT )" start_window: 320 # 60 8 # minutes completion_window: 10080 # 60 * 24 * 7 # minutes delete_after: 90 # 30 * 3	list(object({ name = string schedule = optional(string) enable_continuous_backup = optional(bool) start_window = optional(number) completion_window = optional(number) lifecycle = optional(object({ cold_storage_after = optional(number) delete_after = optional(number) opt_in_to_archive_for_supported_resources = optional(bool) })) copy_action = optional(object({ destination_vault_arn = optional(string) lifecycle = optional(object({ cold_storage_after = optional(number) delete_after = optional(number) opt_in_to_archive_for_supported_resources = optional(bool) })) })) }))	`[]`	no
