aws_elasticache_cluster

Provides an ElastiCache Cluster resource.

Example Usage

resource "aws_elasticache_cluster" "bar" {
    cluster_id = "cluster-example"
    engine = "memcached"
    node_type = "cache.m1.small"
    port = 11211
    num_cache_nodes = 1
    parameter_group_name = "default.memcached1.4"
}

Argument Reference

The following arguments are supported:

• cluster_id – (Required) Group identifier. Elasticache converts this name to lowercase

• engine – (Required) Name of the cache engine to be used for this cache cluster. Valid values for this parameter are memcached or redis

• engine_version – (Optional) Version number of the cache engine to be used. See Selecting a Cache Engine and Version in the AWS Documentation center for supported versions

• maintenance_window – (Optional) Specifies the weekly time range which maintenance on the cache cluster is performed. The format is ddd:hh24:mi-ddd:hh24:mi (24H Clock UTC). The minimum maintenance window is a 60 minute period. Example: sun:05:00-sun:09:00

• node_type – (Required) The compute and memory capacity of the nodes. See Available Cache Node Types for supported node types

• num_cache_nodes – (Required) The initial number of cache nodes that the cache cluster will have. For Redis, this value must be 1. For Memcache, this value must be between 1 and 20. If this number is reduced on subsequent runs, the highest numbered nodes will be removed.

• parameter_group_name – (Required) Name of the parameter group to associate with this cache cluster

• port – (Required) The port number on which each of the cache nodes will accept connections. For Memcache the default is 11211, and for Redis the default port is 6379.

• subnet_group_name – (Optional, VPC only) Name of the subnet group to be used for the cache cluster.

• security_group_names – (Optional, EC2 Classic only) List of security group names to associate with this cache cluster

• security_group_ids – (Optional, VPC only) One or more VPC security groups associated with the cache cluster

• apply_immediately - (Optional) Specifies whether any database modifications are applied immediately, or during the next maintenance window. Default is false. See Amazon ElastiCache Documentation for more information. (Available since v0.6.0)

• snapshot_arns – (Optional) A single-element string list containing an Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of a Redis RDB snapshot file stored in Amazon S3. Example: arn:aws:s3:::my_bucket/snapshot1.rdb

• snapshot_window - (Optional) The daily time range (in UTC) during which ElastiCache will begin taking a daily snapshot of your cache cluster. Can only be used for the Redis engine. Example: 05:00-09:00

• snapshow_retention_limit - (Optional) The number of days for which ElastiCache will retain automatic cache cluster snapshots before deleting them. For example, if you set SnapshotRetentionLimit to 5, then a snapshot that was taken today will be retained for 5 days before being deleted. If the value of SnapshotRetentionLimit is set to zero (0), backups are turned off. Can only be used for the Redis engine.

• notification_topic_arn – (Optional) An Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an SNS topic to send ElastiCache notifications to. Example: arn:aws:sns:us-east-1:012345678999:my_sns_topic

• tags - (Optional) A mapping of tags to assign to the resource.

~> NOTE: Snapshotting functionality is not compatible with t2 instance types.

Attributes Reference

The following attributes are exported:
