AWS re:Invent 2018: Your Virtual Data Center: VPC Fundamentals and Connectivity Options (NET201)

In this session, we walk through the fundamentals of Amazon VPC. First, we cover build-out and design fundamentals for VPCs, including picking your IP space, subnetting, routing, security, NAT, and much more. We then transition to different approaches and use cases for optionally connecting your VPC to your physical data center with VPN or AWS Direct Connect. This mid-level architecture discussion is aimed at architects, network administrators, and technology decision makers interested in understanding the building blocks that AWS makes available with Amazon VPC. Learn how you can connect VPCs with your offices and current data center footprint.

Very nice presentation. Simplifies VPC architecture in understandable terms. A must for mid - beginners.

The 50% of a presentation to be understandable is about speaker skills. She did that 100% understandable. Even for people like me that we aren't english native speakers. Congrats and thanks for this presentation.

Super presentation... very informative

[ARULKS]

25:14 Slide says "VPC CIDR ranges must not overlap"... however, the diagram shows all VPCs with the same CIDR range?

[arranduff]

Great presentation Gina! One question for you. You mentioned that it's possible to block traffic to services other than through a gateway endpoint. Is it possible to do the same for interface endpoints? For example if I want a kinesis stream to only be reachable via my vpc interface endpoint?

[larskinder]

Good presentation. A basic question I have so is, does it make more sense to create VPCs per service, per service cluster (services that could be put in one group) or simply one big VPC containing all services? I have this question, because I did not find anything about that (probably not good in googling). ^^
