Lab Overview

This lab teaches Terraform modules on AWS through the same progression used across the Terraform Associate track: define modules, call modules, consume outputs, and compose a larger architecture.

You will progressively:

  • Review a simple TLS module to understand module structure and root module calls
  • Add a load balancer module and trace how outputs feed other resources
  • Introduce a networking module that becomes the shared foundation for other modules
  • Finish with an EC2-focused composition that ties four reusable modules together

By the end of the lab, you will understand how module boundaries improve reuse, readability, and maintainability in real Terraform configurations.

What You'll Learn

Create and examine reusable Terraform modules with clear interfaces

Pass values into modules and consume module outputs in other resources

Build AWS modules for TLS, load balancing, networking, and compute

Compose multiple modules into a complete AWS deployment

Recognize how modules simplify large Terraform configurations
