Installation Guide

Deploy Elasticsearch cluster in minutes with Terraform

1. Add Module

module "elasticsearch" {
  source = "Datomni/elasticsearch-cluster/aws"
  
  domain_name     = var.domain_name
  instance_type   = "t3.small.elasticsearch"
  instance_count  = 3
  volume_size     = 20
}

Add this configuration to your main.tf file

2. Configure Variables

variable "domain_name" {
  type        = string
  description = "Name of the Elasticsearch domain"
}

variable "instance_type" {
  type        = string
  default     = "t3.small.elasticsearch"
  description = "Elasticsearch instance type"
}

variable "instance_count" {
  type        = number
  default     = 3
  description = "Number of instances in the cluster"
}

Define these variables in your variables.tf file

3. Deploy

# Initialize Terraform
terraform init

# Review the plan
terraform plan

# Apply the configuration
terraform apply

Run these commands to deploy your Elasticsearch cluster
