Learn about Virtual Private Cloud, a core component of the AWS networks.

Virtual Private Cloud

As the name suggests, Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) is a private, virtual network in AWS dedicated to an account. VPC is logically isolated from all other VPCs (in the same or different accounts) in the AWS network.

  • VPC is a region-specific service (i.e., a VPC is limited to one AWS Region).
  • A VPC spans all AZs in its region.
  • Each VPC can have its own network configuration.
