Terraform-AWS

Setting Up a Simple AWS Infrastructure with Terraform

Objectives:

The main objectives of this tutorial are to:

1. Configure the AWS Provider:

   • Set up the AWS provider with a specified region (us-east-1 in this case).

2. Create a VPC:

   • Establish a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) with a defined CIDR block and a name tag.

3. Create an Internet Gateway:

   • Generate an internet gateway associated with the VPC created in step 2.

4. Create a Custom Route Table:

   • Set up a route table with routes for both IPv4 and IPv6 traffic, associating it with the VPC.

5. Create a Subnet:

   • Establish a subnet within the VPC with a specified CIDR block and availability zone.

6. Associate Subnet with Route Table:

   • Link the subnet created in step 5 with the custom route table.

7. Create a Security Group:

   • Define a security group allowing inbound traffic on ports 22 (SSH), 80 (HTTP), and 443 (HTTPS), and all outbound traffic.

8. Create a Network Interface:

   • Generate a network interface within the subnet, assigning a private IP and associating it with the security group.

9. Assign an Elastic IP:

   • Allocate an Elastic IP to the network interface created in step 7.

10. Create Ubuntu Web Server:

    • Launch an AWS instance with Ubuntu, using the specified AMI, instance type, key name, and user data to install and enable Apache2.
