Description

Amazon just launched AWS FIS (Failure Injection Simulator) in GA (blog post). The experiment templates look like a good fit for terraform.

New or Affected Resource(s)

• aws_fis_experiment_template

Potential Terraform Configuration

This seems like a pretty complex resource so I've filled out most of the available options, but the structure is very likely not what it should look like in the end.

resource "aws_fis_experiment_template" "main" {
  description = "Description of the experiment template."

  # Note: This is a list of conditions in the AWS API
  stop_condition = {
    source = "aws:cloudwatch:alarm"
    value = "aws:cloudwatch:arn"
  }

  # Note: This is a list of targets in the AWS API
  target = {
    # There are 6 resource types currently
    resource_type = "aws:ec2:instance"

    resource_arns = [
       "arn:to:ec2:instance1",
       "arn:to:ec2:instance2",
    ]

    resource_tags = [
      {
        key = "TagName"
        value = "TagValue"
      }
    ]

    filters = [
      {
        path = "string",
        values = ["val1", "val2"]
      }
    ]

    # One of ALL, count(n), percent(n)
    selection_mode = "percent(25)"
  }

  # Note: this is a list of actions in the AWS API
  action {
    action_id = "actionId1"
    description = "This is an action description."

    start_after = [
      "actionId2"
    ]
   
    # List of parameters
    parameter {
      
    }

    # List of targets
    { 

    }
  }
}

Hi, would love an update on this, FIS has been out for a while now

You may already know and using it already, something along the lines is currently available via "awscc" provider. Obviously it means using a different provider but it is quite handy as compared to writing custom scripts. Happy to share sample code if anyone needs. https://registry.terraform.io/providers/hashicorp/awscc/latest/docs/resources/fis_experiment_template
