The VPC service provides us with the ability to provision logically isolated networks in AWS. With VPC, we are able to design, create, and manage all aspects of networking in the AWS Cloud. When creating a VPC, we start by creating a range of IPv4 and/or IPv6 addresses that we can then split into subnets. We also have the ability to configure all aspects of routing and control how and where we attach network gateways. The VPC is the main environment that provides logical network isolation and grouping of resources, such as Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) or Elastic Container Service (ECS) instances, and other AWS services that we want to connect to via private IP ranges.
