Description

AWS ElastiCache now provides the capability for IAM based authentication. An ElastiCache user can be created with AuthenticationMode type set to iam.

This may require a new attribute (something like authentication_mode in the aws_elasticache_user resource).

Affected Resource(s) and/or Data Source(s)

aws_elasticache_user

Potential Terraform Configuration

resource "aws_elasticache_user" "test" {
  user_id             = "testUserId"
  user_name           = "testUserName"
  access_string       = "on ~app::* -@all +@read +@hash +@bitmap +@geo -setbit -bitfield -hset -hsetnx -hmset -hincrby -hincrbyfloat -hdel -bitop -geoadd -georadius -georadiusbymember"
  authentication_mode = "iam"
  engine              = "REDIS"
  passwords           = ["password123456789"]
}
