Terraform Docker Swarm Cluster Deployment

This repository contains Terraform scripts to automate the deployment of a Docker Swarm cluster on AWS EC2 instances. Docker Swarm allows you to manage a cluster of Docker engines, providing native clustering capabilities to turn a group of Docker engines into a single virtual Docker engine.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have the following:

• AWS account with appropriate permissions.
• Terraform installed locally. See Terraform Installation Guide for instructions.
• AWS CLI installed and configured with an IAM user's access key and secret key.

Steps to Deploy

1. Clone the Repository:

   git clone https://github.com/saikiranpi/Terraform-Docker-Swarm-Cluster.git
   cd Terraform-Docker-Swarm-Cluster

2. Update AWS Key Location and Name: Replace the default key location and name in Terraform configuration files (variables.tf, main.tf) with your own key details.

3. Validate Terraform Configuration:

   terraform validate

4. Plan Deployment:

   terraform plan

5. Apply Deployment:

   terraform apply

   Enter yes when prompted to confirm the deployment.

6. Accessing the Docker Swarm Cluster: After deployment, follow Terraform output or AWS Console to access the Docker Swarm cluster.

Customization

• Adjust variables.tf and main.tf to customize cluster size, instance types, and other parameters.

Cleanup

To destroy the Docker Swarm cluster and associated resources:

terraform destroy

Enter yes when prompted to confirm destruction.
