AWS VPC Services List
The following are the list of AWS VPC Key services:
- 1. Amazon VPC: It facilitates us in creating and managing the virtual networks in the cloud including the configuring subnets, route tables and network access control lists (ACLs)
- 2. VPC Peering: It supports us to connect the VPCs within the same AWS region allowing the resources in different VPCs to communicate with each other securely.
- 3. VPC Endpoints: It provides the private connectivity between the AWS Services without requirement of internet access. It improves the security and reduces the data transfer costs.
- 4. VPC Connects: It allows us to establish a private secure connection between your on-premise network and your VPC using VPC technology.
- 5. Direct Connect: It offers the dedicated network connection between your on-premises data center and AWS providing higher band-width and lower latency compared to the VPC Connections.
AWS VPC Endpoint
Deploying your application in the AWS VPC which doesn’t have an internet connection by default, and the application is required to communicate with S3 service for reading the files and writing the files, in this scenario to make the application communicate with S3, we need a route for public internet using either NAT Gateway, Internet Gateway, or AWS Direct Connect. What if you don’t want to expose any requests being made inside this application to go through the internet?, here comes the concept of VPC Endpoints.
