There are a couple different configuration methods that can be used to create instances within the cluster:
โน๏ธ Only the pertinent attributes are shown for brevity
- Create homogenous cluster of any number of instances
- Resources created:
- Writer: 1
- Reader(s): 2
instance_class = "db.r6g.large"
instances = {
one = {}
two = {}
three = {}
}
- Create homogenous cluster of instances w/ autoscaling enabled. This is redundant and we'll show why in the next example.
- Resources created:
- Writer: 1
- Reader(s):
- At least 4 readers (2 created directly, 2 created by appautoscaling)
- At most 7 reader instances (2 created directly, 5 created by appautoscaling)
โน๏ธ Autoscaling uses the instance class specified by instance_class
.
instance_class = "db.r6g.large"
instances = {
one = {}
two = {}
three = {}
}
autoscaling_enabled = true
autoscaling_min_capacity = 2
autoscaling_max_capacity = 5
- Create homogeneous cluster scaled via autoscaling. At least one instance (writer) is required
- Resources created:
- Writer: 1
- Reader(s):
- At least 1 reader
- At most 5 readers
instance_class = "db.r6g.large"
instances = {
one = {}
}
autoscaling_enabled = true
autoscaling_min_capacity = 1
autoscaling_max_capacity = 5
-
Create heterogenous cluster to support mixed-use workloads
It is common in this configuration to independently control the instance
promotion_tier
paired withendpoints
to create custom endpoints directed at select instances or instance groups.
- Resources created:
- Writer: 1
- Readers: 2
instance_class = "db.r5.large"
instances = {
one = {
instance_class = "db.r5.2xlarge"
publicly_accessible = true
}
two = {
identifier = "static-member-1"
instance_class = "db.r5.2xlarge"
}
three = {
identifier = "excluded-member-1"
instance_class = "db.r5.large"
promotion_tier = 15
}
}
- Create heterogenous cluster to support mixed-use workloads w/ autoscaling enabled
- Resources created:

- Reader(s):
- At least 3 readers (2 created directly, 1 created through appautoscaling)
- At most 7 readers (2 created directly, 5 created through appautoscaling)

The following values are provided to toggle on/off creation of the associated resources as desired:
# This RDS cluster will not be created
module "cluster" {
source = "terraform-aws-modules/rds-aurora/aws"
# Disable creation of cluster and all resources
create_cluster = false
# Disable creation of subnet group - provide a subnet group
create_db_subnet_group = false
# Disable creation of security group - provide a security group
create_security_group = false
# Disable creation of monitoring IAM role - provide a role ARN
create_monitoring_role = false
# Disable creation of random password - AWS API provides the password
create_random_password = false
# ... omitted
}
- Autoscaling: A PostgreSQL cluster with enhanced monitoring and autoscaling enabled
