Best Practices

Serverless execution environment.

Example Output

Here is a real generated snippet matching the production best practices above:

resource "aws_lambda_function" "api_handler" {
  filename      = "function.zip"
  function_name = "api-handler"
  role          = aws_iam_role.lambda_exec.arn
  handler       = "index.handler"
  runtime       = "nodejs20.x"

  environment {
    variables = {
      DB_HOST = aws_db_instance.postgres.endpoint
    }
  }
}

resource "aws_iam_role" "lambda_exec" {
  name = "serverless_lambda_exec"
  assume_role_policy = jsonencode({
    Version = "2012-10-17"
    Statement = [{
      Action = "sts:AssumeRole"
      Effect = "Allow"
      Principal = { Service = "lambda.amazonaws.com" }
    }]
  })
}

Advanced Configuration Logic

Lambda requires precise IAM execution roles and API Gateway integrations.

Terraform Basics

What is Infrastructure as Code?

IaC is the process of managing and provisioning computing infrastructure through machine-readable definition files, rather than physical hardware configuration or interactive configuration tools.

What is HCL?

HashiCorp Configuration Language (HCL) is a declarative configuration language designed to be readable by humans and machines. It is the core language used to write Terraform configurations.

What is State?

Terraform must store state about your managed infrastructure and configuration. This state is used by Terraform to map real world resources to your configuration and track metadata.

What are Providers?

Providers are plugins that Terraform uses to interact with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), SaaS platforms, and other APIs.
