The count parameter on resources can simplify configurations
|
|
|
|
|
and let you scale resources by simply incrementing a number.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Additionally, variables can be used to expand a list of resources
|
|
|
|
|
for use elsewhere.

As with all examples, just copy and paste the example and run
|
|
|
|
|
`terraform apply` to see it work.
