As you learned this week, a virtual private cloud (VPC) enables you to launch resources into a virtual network that you’ve configured and gives you full control over those resources. That provides a level of security over a public cloud when you need to control your resources and sensitive data over a virtual infrastructure. But VPCs also have drawbacks, including increased configuration complexity.
Address the following questions in your discussions. Be sure to answer all questions in your initial post and respond to two posts by your classmates.
- Question 1: What are the components of an Amazon VPC?
- Question 2: What is the default VPC and what are its advantages?
