8. Terraform Label Module

Date: 2019-05-21

Status

Accepted

Context

It can sometimes be hard to name resources in AWS so that you can identify them. The clever guys from CloudPosse have created a terraform-terraform-label module aimed at helping to generate consistent label names and tags for resources.

Decision

This module will utilise the terraform-terraform-label module.

Consequences

You should use this module for every unique resource of a given resource type.

Labels follow the convention of: {namespace}-{stage}-{name}-{attributes}
