The document discusses the concept of 'infrastructure as code' with a focus on creating and managing AWS S3 buckets using Terraform. It includes code snippets for defining various S3 bucket resources and managing them through a list variable, along with references to self-hosted database modules and user data templates for EC2 instances. The author also expresses the opinion that 'infrastructure as code' is not genuinely code.

6. (Opinions are my own)

9. Adding 3 buckets
resource "aws_s3_bucket" "sand" {
bucket = "sand"
acl = "private"
region = "us-east-1"
tags = "${var.tags}"
# ...
# 30 more lines here
# ...
}
resource "aws_s3_bucket" "mud" {
bucket = "mud"
acl = "private"
region = "us-east-1"
tags = "${var.tags}"
# ...
# same 30 lines here
# ...
}
resource "aws_s3_bucket" "dirt" {
bucket = "dirt"
acl = "private"
region = "us-east-1"
tags = "${var.tags}"
# ...
# same 30 lines here too
# ...
}

11. Applying DRY
variable "buckets" {
type = "list"
default = ["sand", "mud", "dirt"]
}
resource "aws_s3_bucket" "bucket" {
count = "${length(var.buckets)}"
bucket = "${var.buckets[count.index]}"
acl = "private"
region = "us-east-1"
tags = "${var.tags}"
# ...
# 30 more lines here
# ...
}

12. Destroying a single (?) bucket
variable "buckets" {
type = "list"
default = ["sand", "mud", "dirt"]
}
resource "aws_s3_bucket" "bucket" {
count = "${length(var.buckets)}"
bucket = "${var.buckets[count.index]}"
acl = "private"
region = "us-east-1"
tags = "${var.tags}"
# ...
# 30 more lines here
# ...
}

15. Self-hosted DB Module
# Elastic Network Interface(s)
# Elastic Block Service devices
# User Data Template
# Launch Configuration
# Auto Scaling Group
# Route 53 Record (to ENI)
# Output: Route 53 Record

16. Using the DB module (?)
module "db" {
source = "./db"
}
resource "aws_instance" "app" {
ami = "ami-01234567890123456"
instance_type = "m4.large"
user_data = "...${module.db.address}..."
}

17. Terraform Dependency Graph

19. Module is NOT a class
or a struct, or a union
