To help customers using the Terraform for multi-cloud infrastructure deployment, we have introduced a new feature in the AWS Config Rule Development Kit (RDK) that allows you to export custom AWS Config rules to Terraform files so that you can deploy the RDK rules with Terraform. Here I will show you how to prototype, develop, and deploy custom AWS Config rules.

In this post, you will learn how to export the custom AWS Config rule to Terraform files and deploy to AWS using the Terraform.

After you have defined an AWS Config rule and prototyped using the AWS Config RDK as described in the previous blog post, follow the steps below to deploy the various AWS Config components across the compliance and satellite accounts.

With this new feature, you can export the AWS config rules developed by RDK to the Terraform, and integrate these files into your Terraform CI/CD pipeline to provision the config rules in AWS without using the RDK.
