Terraform uses a graph to keep track of infrastructure dependencies. You can export the graph and take a look (terraform graph).
I once built a terraform provider for a custom neo4j cmdb to be able to add metadata in the form of additional relationships to anything provisioned with TF.
This data was used for config inventory, job scheduling and a bunch of other automations/rules.
Broke the ”cloud vendor” boundry this way and we used it seamlessly against on-prem vsphere and aws.
Never got around to open source it, unfortunately.
A graph for this type of cmdb/config data is really useful.
