Virtual Private Cloud

A Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) is a secure and distinct private cloud setup that operates within the infrastructure of a public cloud. This configuration grants an organization its own logically distinct virtual network, allowing for detailed management of network elements such as IP addresses, subnets, and routing tables. In essence, a VPC merges the security and governance of a private cloud with the scalability and ease of a public cloud.

A VPC provides a combination of the control found in a private data center and the extensive resources available in the public cloud. This hybrid model offers companies improved security, increased flexibility, and the capability to efficiently scale their operations. Notable benefits include:

Virtual Private Clouds offer a comprehensive range of features that enable detailed control over a cloud networking environment. They allow for the creation of a logically isolated segment of a public cloud, which can be configured and managed similarly to a conventional private data center.

Although their names are alike, VPCs and VPNs fulfill different yet complementary roles in cloud networking.

Securing a VPC requires utilizing its isolation capabilities while overseeing network settings and access permissions.
