A Terraform module for deploying NAT Instances using fck-nat. The (f)easible (c)ost (k)onfigurable NAT! The following is a list of features available with this module:
- High-availability mode achieved through a floating internal ENI automatically attached to instances being started by an ASG
- Optional consistent static IP via EIP re-attachment to the internet facing ENI
- Cloudwatch metrics reported similar to those available with the managed NAT Gateway
- Use of spot instances instead of on-demand for reduced costs
