what is vpc

A Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) is a logically isolated virtual network that can be created within a public cloud environment. It provides a certain level of isolation between different organizations using the resources, allowing them to work on a virtually private cloud as if the cloud infrastructure is not shared with other users. A VPC is a virtual network that closely resembles a traditional network that youd operate in your own data center. It allows users to launch AWS resources in a logically isolated virtual network that they have defined. A VPC provides full control over the size of the network and the ability to deploy and scale resources at any time. VPCs are flexible enough to move with your business as needed, and you only pay for what you use. VPCs are used by companies that need a private cloud environment but also want public cloud resources and savings. VPCs are logically isolated networks, so data and applications are entirely separate from the providers other clients.
