Instead, your Terraform state file has been partially updated with
any resources that successfully completed. Please address the error

Expected Behavior

successful run

Actual Behavior

type mismatch

Steps to Reproduce

Important Factoids

S3 and DynamoDB endpoints are Gateway types, but ec2, servicecatalog, ssm, etc. types are Interface types. It's likely that the class expects all input to be a gateway, however that's not the case anymore (instead of a gateway it should be creating an interface for the ec2 service_name)
