Terraform module to provision an S3 bucket with built in policy to allow CloudTrail logs.
This is useful if an organization uses a number of separate AWS accounts to isolate the Audit environment from other environments (production, staging, development).
In this case, you create CloudTrail in the production environment (Production AWS account), while the S3 bucket to store the CloudTrail logs is created in the Audit AWS account, restricting access to the logs only to the users/groups from the Audit account.
The module supports the following:
- Forced server-side encryption at rest for the S3 bucket
- S3 bucket versioning to easily recover from both unintended user actions and application failures
- S3 bucket is protected from deletion if it's not empty (force_destroy set to
false
)
Tip
Cloud Posse uses atmos
to easily orchestrate multiple environments using Terraform.
Works with Github Actions, Atlantis, or Spacelift.
Watch demo of using Atmos with Terraform
Example of running
atmos
to manage infrastructure from our Quick Start tutorial.
module "s3_bucket" {
source = "cloudposse/cloudtrail-s3-bucket/aws"
# Cloud Posse recommends pinning every module to a specific version
# version = "x.x.x"
namespace = "eg"
stage = "prod"
name = "cluster"
}
Important
In Cloud Posse's examples, we avoid pinning modules to specific versions to prevent discrepancies between the documentation and the latest released versions. However, for your own projects, we strongly advise pinning each module to the exact version you're using. This practice ensures the stability of your infrastructure. Additionally, we recommend implementing a systematic approach for updating versions to avoid unexpected changes.
