Rego is the declarative policy language used by Open Policy Agent (OPA). This tile covers writing and testing Rego policies for Kubernetes admission control, Terraform and infrastructure-as-code plan validation, Docker container authorization, HTTP API authorization, RBAC and role-based access control, data filtering, metadata annotations with opa inspect, and OPA policy testing with opa test.

Terraform: Multi-Region Deployment Policies

We use OPA to validate Terraform plans before they are applied. Write a Rego policy that enforces region and data residency requirements.

The policy must:

  1. Deny the plan if the AWS provider region is not in the approved set: us-east-1, us-west-2, eu-west-1, eu-central-1
  2. Deny creation of aws_s3_bucket, aws_rds_cluster, or aws_dynamodb_table resources tagged DataResidency = "EU" in a non-EU region (eu-west-1 and eu-central-1 are EU regions)
  3. Warn (but do not deny) when aws_s3_bucket or aws_dynamodb_table resources tagged Criticality = "high" are created without replication configured

The AWS provider region is available at tfplan.configuration.provider_config.aws.expressions.region.constant_value.

Replication for S3 is indicated by the presence of r.change.after.replication_configuration; for DynamoDB by count(r.change.after.replica) > 0.

The policy must support both raw Terraform input and HCP Terraform / Terraform Enterprise input.
