Lab 04: Create VPC with CIDR Using Terraform

The Nautilus DevOps team is strategically planning the migration of a portion of their infrastructure to the AWS cloud. Acknowledging the magnitude of this endeavor, they have chosen to tackle the migration incrementally rather than as a single, massive transition. Their approach involves creating Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs) as the initial step, as they will be provisioning various services under different VPCs.

Create a VPC named datacenter-vpc in us-east-1 region with 192.168.0.0/24 IPv4 CIDR using terraform.

The Terraform working directory is /home/bob/terraform. Create the main.tf file (do not create a different .tf file) to accomplish this task.

Note: Right-click under the EXPLORER section in VS Code and select Open in Integrated Terminal to launch the terminal.

Create main.tf

resource "aws_vpc" "datacenter-vpc" {
  cidr_block = "192.168.0.0/24"  
  tags = {
    Name = "datacenter-vpc"
  }
}

terraform init
terraform plan -out kke.plan
terraform apply kke.plan
