Task: Deploy a Simple Web Application on AWS using Terraform

Objective:

Use Terraform to deploy a basic infrastructure on AWS to host a simple web application.

Requirements:

1. AWS Resources to Create:

   • VPC with two subnets (one public, one private).
   • An EC2 instance (Ubuntu) in the public subnet to serve as a web server.
   • A security group to allow HTTP (port 80) and SSH (port 22) access to the EC2 instance.
   • A public-facing Elastic IP attached to the EC2 instance.
   • A simple HTML file served using the web server on the EC2 instance (e.g., using Nginx or Apache).

2. Terraform Configuration:

   • Write Terraform code to define the infrastructure.
   • Use terraform variables to make the configuration flexible (e.g., instance type, key name, region).
   • Use the formatter and validate to ensure proper formatting and validation.

3. Instructions:

   • Provide clear instructions on how to initialize and apply the Terraform configuration.
   • Document any AWS IAM roles or permissions needed to apply the infrastructure.

4. Deliverables:

   • Terraform code (main.tf, variables.tf, and outputs.tf files).
   • A README file with steps to run the Terraform code.
   • A brief description of the solution.
