Question

Hi everyone I m deploying an AWS OpenSearch domain alongside my old AWS ElasticSearch and there s one very important difference in how the domain name works for ES a unique suffix is appended to the domain but for OS it s not open mouth Is this a bug or is this how it s supposed to be If it s expected then how can we elegantly handle uniqueness across dozens of deployments thinking face Thanks

This is how the OpenSearch domain is configured For some reason the `domainName` config key is required unlike in all other resources

Found this <https registry terraform io providers hashicorp aws latest docs resources opensearch domain> so I guess this question is more towards Terraform rather than Pulumi It still makes things a lot more complicated disappointed

Are you asking why there s a random suffix Or why there isn t one

Why there isn t one ElasticSearch has one which is great we got used to this commodity of not having to worry about uniqueness of resources But OpenSearch resource doesn t generate one which is an issue

Got it you can create one using the random provider and append it to the name as a workaround but could you cut an issue for this so we can add the randomness back in the provider
