Create a SaaS Warehouse with Terraform
Use Terraform when you want to create VeloDB Cloud SaaS warehouses from reviewed, version-controlled infrastructure configuration. A warehouse configuration can also define its initial physical compute cluster and auto-suspend behavior.
Before you create a warehouse
- Authenticate the VeloDB Terraform provider.
- Choose a supported cloud provider, region, Availability Zone, and compute configuration.
- Ensure that your organization has an active deduction channel or sufficient balance. Warehouses and running clusters can incur charges.
- Inject the warehouse administrator password from an approved secrets manager or CI/CD secret store. The provider records the password as a sensitive value in Terraform state so that it can detect password rotation. Use an encrypted remote backend and restrict access to state.
Create the warehouse
Use the velodb_warehouse resource for the complete configuration, supported values, and examples. Review the Terraform plan before applying it, especially the region, initial cluster capacity, and auto-suspend settings.
After Terraform finishes creating the resources, verify in the VeloDB Cloud Console that the warehouse and initial cluster have the Running status.
