AWS provides a wide range of networking options.
AWS Virtual Private Cloud, or AWS VPC, is a service that allows you to isolate your AWS resources within a private network. The boundaries established around these resources help AWS control and restrict network traffic. Additionally, it enables you to designate specific sections of the AWS Cloud for inclusion in this isolated network. Within a VPC, resources can be organized into subnets, which are segments that contain particular resources.
Public traffic can be permitted to your VPC through an Internet Gateway.
An Internet Gateway acts as a gateway between the VPC and the internet, allowing traffic to flow into the VPC. Without it, access to the resources within the VPC from the internet would not be possible. |
A Virtual Private Gateway is used to access private resources within the VPC, offering additional layers of security. It encrypts internet traffic to ensure its protection and serves as a component that allows this encrypted traffic to enter the VPC securely.

AWS Direct Connect allows you to establish a dedicated private connection between your Data Center and a VPC. This dedicated connection is exclusively for your use, ensuring that the link is not shared with others, and only your data passes through the connection.
