Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)
An Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) lets you isolate your AWS resources in a private network you define. You control which sections of the AWS Cloud to include and how to restrict network traffic.
Resources within a VPC can be organized into subnets, which are sections that contain specific resources.
Internet Gateway
An Internet Gateway connects your VPC to the public internet. Without it, resources in your VPC cannot be accessed from the internet.

Virtual Private Gateway
A Virtual Private Gateway creates an encrypted VPN connection between your private network and your VPC. It only allows traffic from approved networks, keeping your data secure.

AWS Direct Connect
Direct Connect provides a dedicated private connection between your data center and AWS. Unlike shared internet connections, this link is exclusively yours, providing consistent performance and enhanced security.
