VPC

Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) allows users to provision a virtual network within AWS that is logically isolated from other networks. There are two types of VPCs - a default VPC automatically created by AWS, and a non-default VPC that is custom-built by the user. Key components of a VPC include route tables, which contain rules for routing traffic within and between subnets, and internet gateways, which allow instances within the VPC to connect to the internet and be accessed from outside the VPC.

Amazon VPC

• The Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) is


a custom-defined
virtual network within the AWS Cloud.
• We can provision our own logically isolated section
of AWS
§ Designing and implementing a separate independent
network
§ Operating in an on premises data center
Amazon VPC
Amazon VPC can also be treated as your private
network in AWS Cloud infrastructure. The security is
top-notch because it is taken care by Amazon. In this
article, I will be talking about the following services
provided by AWS as a part of Amazon VPC.
Amazon VPC And Its Types

AWS provides a lot of services, these services are


sufficient to run your architecture. The backbone for
the security of this architecture is VPC (Virtual Private
Cloud). VPC is basically a private cloud in the AWS
environment that helps you to use all the services by
AWS in your defined private space. You have control
over the virtual network and you can also restrict the
incoming traffic using security groups.
Overall, VPC helps you to secure your environment
and give you a complete authority of incoming traffic.
There are two types of VPCs, Default VPC that is by
default created by Amazon and Non-Default VPC that
is created by you to suffice your security needs.
What Is Route Table?

Route table can be understood as a table that contains


rules for routing traffic within and outside a subnet.
The route table is also used to add Internet Gateway to
the subnet. There can be multiple route tables in a
VPC.
Now that you have an idea as to how the route table
works. Let’s continue with the Amazon VPC tutorial
and learn about Internet Gateway and see how it helps
in managing traffic.
What Is Internet Gateway?

Internet Gateway is a very important component that allows your


instance to connect to the internet. It allows the user to make the
subnet pubic by providing a route to the internet. With the help of
Internet Gateway, an instance can access the internet and the
resources outside instance can access the instance.
Overall, the Internet gateway is a very important component of
VPC. Now, that you know about all the different components of a
VPC, let’s find out how to create one for yourself.
Now that you know about the components of Amazon VPC, let us
move further with this Amazon VPC tutorial and find out how to
create a VPC with default settings and a public subnet.
