memorydb
This component provisions an AWS MemoryDB cluster. MemoryDB is a fully managed, Redis-compatible, in-memory database service.
While Redis is commonly used as a cache, MemoryDB is designed to also function well as a vector database. This makes it appropriate for AI model backends.

Context Variables
The following variables are defined in the context.tf file of this module and part of the terraform-null-label pattern.
context.tf file of this module and part of the terraform-null-label pattern.additional_tag_map(map(string)) optionalAdditional key-value pairs to add to each map in
tags_as_list_of_maps. Not added totagsorid.
This is for some rare cases where resources want additional configuration of tags
and therefore take a list of maps with tag key, value, and additional configuration.Required: No
Default value:
{ }attributes(list(string)) optionalID element. Additional attributes (e.g.
workersorcluster) to add toid,
in the order they appear in the list. New attributes are appended to the
end of the list. The elements of the list are joined by thedelimiter
and treated as a single ID element.Required: No
Default value:
[ ]context(any) optionalSingle object for setting entire context at once.
See description of individual variables for details.
Leave string and numeric variables asnullto use default value.
Individual variable settings (non-null) override settings in context object,
except for attributes, tags, and additional_tag_map, which are merged.Required: No
Default value:
{
"additional_tag_map": {},
"attributes": [],
"delimiter": null,
"descriptor_formats": {},
"enabled": true,
"environment": null,
"id_length_limit": null,
"label_key_case": null,
"label_order": [],
"label_value_case": null,
"labels_as_tags": [
"unset"
],
"name": null,
"namespace": null,
"regex_replace_chars": null,
"stage": null,
"tags": {},
"tenant": null
}delimiter(string) optionalDelimiter to be used between ID elements.
Defaults to-(hyphen). Set to""to use no delimiter at all.Required: No
Default value:
nulldescriptor_formats(any) optionalDescribe additional descriptors to be output in the
descriptorsoutput map.
Map of maps. Keys are names of descriptors. Values are maps of the form
\{<br/> format = string<br/> labels = list(string)<br/> \}
(Type isanyso the map values can later be enhanced to provide additional options.)
formatis a Terraform format string to be passed to theformat()function.
labelsis a list of labels, in order, to pass toformat()function.
Label values will be normalized before being passed toformat()so they will be
identical to how they appear inid.
Default is{}(descriptorsoutput will be empty).Required: No
Default value:
{ }enabled(bool) optionalSet to false to prevent the module from creating any resources
Required: NoDefault value:
nullenvironment(string) optionalID element. Usually used for region e.g. 'uw2', 'us-west-2', OR role 'prod', 'staging', 'dev', 'UAT'
Required: NoDefault value:
nullid_length_limit(number) optionalLimit
idto this many characters (minimum 6).
Set to0for unlimited length.
Set tonullfor keep the existing setting, which defaults to0.
Does not affectid_full.Required: No
Default value:
nulllabel_key_case(string) optionalControls the letter case of the
tagskeys (label names) for tags generated by this module.
Does not affect keys of tags passed in via thetagsinput.
Possible values:lower,title,upper.
Default value:title.Required: No
Default value:
nulllabel_order(list(string)) optionalThe order in which the labels (ID elements) appear in the
id.
Defaults to ["namespace", "environment", "stage", "name", "attributes"].
You can omit any of the 6 labels ("tenant" is the 6th), but at least one must be present.Required: No
Default value:
nulllabel_value_case(string) optionalControls the letter case of ID elements (labels) as included in
id,
set as tag values, and output by this module individually.
Does not affect values of tags passed in via thetagsinput.
Possible values:lower,title,upperandnone(no transformation).
Set this totitleand setdelimiterto""to yield Pascal Case IDs.
Default value:lower.Required: No
Default value:
nulllabels_as_tags(set(string)) optionalSet of labels (ID elements) to include as tags in the
tagsoutput.
Default is to include all labels.
Tags with empty values will not be included in thetagsoutput.
Set to[]to suppress all generated tags.
Notes:
The value of thenametag, if included, will be theid, not thename.
Unlike othernull-labelinputs, the initial setting oflabels_as_tagscannot be
changed in later chained modules. Attempts to change it will be silently ignored.Required: No
Default value:
[
"default"
]name(string) optionalID element. Usually the component or solution name, e.g. 'app' or 'jenkins'.
This is the only ID element not also included as atag.
The "name" tag is set to the fullidstring. There is no tag with the value of thenameinput.Required: No
Default value:
nullnamespace(string) optionalID element. Usually an abbreviation of your organization name, e.g. 'eg' or 'cp', to help ensure generated IDs are globally unique
Required: NoDefault value:
nullregex_replace_chars(string) optionalTerraform regular expression (regex) string.
Characters matching the regex will be removed from the ID elements.
If not set,"/[^a-zA-Z0-9-]/"is used to remove all characters other than hyphens, letters and digits.Required: No
Default value:
nullstage(string) optionalID element. Usually used to indicate role, e.g. 'prod', 'staging', 'source', 'build', 'test', 'deploy', 'release'
Required: NoDefault value:
nulltags(map(string)) optionalAdditional tags (e.g.
{'BusinessUnit': 'XYZ'}).
Neither the tag keys nor the tag values will be modified by this module.Required: No
Default value:
{ }tenant(string) optionalID element (Rarely used, not included by default). A customer identifier, indicating who this instance of a resource is for
Required: NoDefault value:
null
