Modules
Modules are containers for multiple resources that are used together. A module consists of a collection of .tf files in the same directory.
Modules are a good way to separate your infrastructure resources as well as being able to pull in third party modules that have already been created so you do not have to re invent the wheel.
For example if we wanted to use the same project to build out some VMs, VPCs, Security Groups and then also a Kubernetes cluster we would likely want to split our resources out into modules to better define our resources and where they are grouped.
Another benefit to modules is that you can take these modules and use them on other projects or share publicly to help the community.
We are breaking down our infrastructure into components, components are known here as modules.
Resources
I have listed a lot of resources down below and I think this topic has been covered so many times out there, If you have additional resources be sure to raise a PR with your resources and I will be happy to review and add them to the list.
