Description

A new "global network" product has been released by AWS (see references), I would like to be able to use it in terraform.

New or Affected Resource(s)

Suggested resource names (not wedded to any of them):

• aws_networkmanager_global_network
• aws_networkmanager_site
• aws_networkmanager_link
• aws_networkmanager_device
• aws_networkmanager_transit_gateway_registration

Potential Terraform Configuration

resource "aws_global_network" "network" {
  description = "this is a test network"
  tags = {
    Name = "test-network"
  }
}

resource "aws_globalnetwork_transit_gateway_registration" "transit_gateway" {
  network = "${aws_networkmanager_global_network.network}"
  transit_gateway = "${aws_ec2_transit_gateway.gateway.id}"
}

Renamed this issue to AWS Network Manager for Transit Gateways from Global Network as only the transit gateway functionality of AWS Network Manager will be implemented, NOT the currently in-preview Cloud WAN functionality.
