Information about working with DuploCloud's Terraform provider
Using Terraform with DuploCloud
DuploCloud contains its own Terraform provider, which can access DuploCloud Cloud constructs such as Infrastructure and Tenant. When you run DuploCloud, you’re already speeding up the creation of DevOps components, so adding another accelerator based on Terraform is a win-win proposition: less code, less maintenance, faster deployments, and faster time-to-market.
For example, you can create virtually hundreds of cloud components, from VPCs to Route tables, to subnets, with only two to three inputs in DuploCloud. Name your Infrastructure, select a region, specify a VPC CIDR, and you’re up and running in less than half an hour. Advanced configuration options such as custom endpoints are also available, among others, for fine-tuning, but only if you need them.
Further protection is supplied by the DuploCloud Tenant, an isolated workspace that acts as an additional layer of isolation, ideal for segregating production workloads or creating extensible developer sandboxes. A Tenant’s architecture is abstracted from its underlying Infrastructure, and you can create as many Tenants as you need with no degradation in performance.
By default, all resources within a Tenant have access to each other — a built-in feature of the DuploCloud architecture and a significant benefit to the user. For example, a Kubernetes Pod automatically has IAM access to an S3 bucket within the same tenant. Conversely, a Pod in Tenant A cannot access any resources in Tenant B unless explicitly enabled.
However, you can explicitly enable sharing resources between Tenants, such as storage buckets and databases — even the entire Tenant itself. Clone Tenants with the DuploCloud Terraform Exporter. As with everything in DuploCloud, the controls are in your hands, not those of a third party.
