Terraform module to provision an ElastiCache Redis Cluster
This project is part of our comprehensive "SweetOps" approach towards DevOps.
It's 100% Open Source and licensed under the APACHE2.
We literally have hundreds of terraform modules that are Open Source and well-maintained. Check them out!
Security scanning is graciously provided by Bridgecrew. Bridgecrew is the leading fully hosted, cloud-native solution providing continuous Terraform security and compliance.

IMPORTANT: We do not pin modules to versions in our examples because of the difficulty of keeping the versions in the documentation in sync with the latest released versions. We highly recommend that in your code you pin the version to the exact version you are using so that your infrastructure remains stable, and update versions in a systematic way so that they do not catch you by surprise.
Also, because of a bug in the Terraform registry (hashicorp/terraform#21417), the registry shows many of our inputs as required when in fact they are optional. The table below correctly indicates which inputs are required.
Note that this uses secure defaults. One of the ways this module can trip users up is with transit_encryption_enabled which is true by default. With this enabled, one does not simply redis-cli in without setting up an stunnel. Amazon provides good docs on how to connect with it enabled. If this is not desired behavior, set transit_encryption_enabled=false.
For a complete example, see examples/complete.
For automated tests of the complete example using bats and Terratest (which tests and deploys the example on AWS), see test.
