Description

Ease the practitioner burden of working across regions and partitions by providing access to information on DocDB database engine versions and specifically the default version. In addition, the preferred_versions argument should allow selecting a version from a list of acceptable options.

This data source is part of helping practitioners to avoid this error:

Error creating DB Instance: InvalidParameterCombination: DocDB does not support creating a DB instance with the
following combination: DBInstanceClass=db.t1.micro, Engine=mysql, EngineVersion=5.6.27,
LicenseModel=general-public-license. For supported combinations of instance class and database engine version,
see the documentation.

New Data Source

• aws_docdb_engine_version

Potential Terraform Configuration

data "aws_docdb_engine_version" "test" {}
