Dependency¶

terragrunt dependency vs terraform depends_on¶

Scope

• In Terragrunt, we can declare dependencies between modules

• In Terraform, we can only declare dependencies between resources within a single module

Execution order

• In Terragrunt, dependencies are resolved in a top-down order, where each module is processed before its dependencies

• In Terraform, the depends_on argument is used to specify the execution order of resources within a module
