Terraform module which creates Application and Network Load Balancer resources on AWS.
When you're using ALB Listener rules, make sure that every rule's actions block ends in a forward, redirect, or fixed-response action so that every rule will resolve to some sort of an HTTP response. Checkout the AWS documentation for more information.
