By Amazon Web Services (AWS)
4.5/5
(368)
Product Description
Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) is a service that enables users to launch AWS resources within a logically isolated virtual network. This setup closely mirrors a traditional network that one might operate in a data center, offering the scalability and flexibility of AWS infrastructure.

This control allows for the customization of network configurations to meet specific requirements, such as creating public-facing subnets for web servers with internet access and private subnets for backend systems without internet connectivity. Key Features and Functionality: - Customizable Network Configuration: Users can define their own IP address ranges, create subnets, and configure route tables and network gateways to tailor the network to their needs. - Security Controls: Amazon VPC provides multiple layers of security, including security groups and network access control lists, to control inbound and outbound traffic at both the instance and subnet levels. - Hybrid Connectivity: The service supports secure connections between the VPC and on-premises data centers via IPsec VPN or AWS Direct Connect, facilitating hybrid cloud deployments. - Resource Isolation: By launching resources in a VPC, users can isolate them from other AWS customers, enhancing security and compliance. - IPv4 and IPv6 Support: Amazon VPC supports both IPv4 and IPv6 protocols, allowing for flexible addressing options. Primary Value and User Solutions: Amazon VPC addresses the need for secure, scalable, and customizable cloud networking. It allows organizations to extend their on-premises networks into the cloud, creating a seamless and secure hybrid environment. By providing full control over network configurations and security settings, Amazon VPC enables businesses to deploy applications and services in the cloud with confidence, ensuring compliance with internal policies and industry regulations. The service's flexibility and integration capabilities make it suitable for a wide range of use cases, from hosting simple websites to running complex multi-tier applications.
