Amazon's Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) is a service that enables you to provision a logically isolated section of the AWS Cloud where you can launch your Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances in a virtual network that you define. This virtual network closely resembles the traditional network that you might operate in your own data center, with the benefits of using the scalable infrastructure of AWS.
What is Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)?
Amazon VPC lets you define a virtual network in AWS that is logically isolated from other virtual networks in the VPC. You can create a VPC that spans multiple Availability Zones, enabling you to distribute your resources across multiple locations to increase availability.
Within your VPC, you can create subnets, which are ranges of IP addresses in your VPC. You can associate subnets with different Availability Zones to create a highly available network. You can also create security groups to control the traffic that is allowed to enter and leave your subnets.
