🚀 Feature Proposal

Create Terraform code for a Data Lifecycle Manager policy to take snapshots of CyHy EBS volumes on a schedule. This should not be too complicated thanks to the aws_dlm_lifecycle_policy Terraform resource.

The DLM policy should be configurable via Terraform variables and it should include reasonable defaults (e.g. daily snapshots, retain past 7 snapshots).

Motivation

Our DLM policy was created artisanally in AWS, but it should be codified in Terraform.

Pitch

Built-in automated data backups are a Good Thing.
