VPC peering and connectivity options
Imagine two separate islands in a vast ocean. VPC peering is like building an exclusive bridge to connect these oceans directly to facilitate easier communication between them. In this section, we will explore how AWS lets these islands or VPCs connect and share information without the need for public internet.
VPC peering concepts and setup
VPC peering allows you to establish networking connectivity between two different VPCs. By creating VPC peering, you can create a route using each VPC private IP address as if they were in the same network. Peering connection can be established between VPCs in the same region or different regions inside the same AWS account or different AWS account.
Concepts of VPC peering
Let’s understand the essential building blocks that underpin the mechanism of VPC peering:
- IP addressing: For the VPC peering to work, ensure the connecting VPCs do not have overlapping CIDR blocks. Each VPC must...
