AWS Networking Fundamentals

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.

This is pure gold. This is what happens when professionals explain compared to those Udemy instructors.

Excellent talk. Coming from a non-networking background, it really helped me understand the basics of networking constructs in the AWS world. Thanks.

[derzasekolahdidd]

This is the best „Getting Started“ to VPC ever

[nathanbenton]

simplest, best VPC-to-VPC connection explanation I've ever seen - great job! 20:40-21:10

[rajpasupuleti]

A great video on basics of VPC, recommend to everyone who is preparing for AWS Solution Architect Associate Certification.

[ChandruVisalur]

within an hour all the networking options and their dependencies have been discussed in an effective & simple way...hats off...

[_hackslang_]

Finally understood the use of VPC, Subnets and Routing tables. thank.

[Zizlinger]

This video is incredible. I was wondering for so long about reasons VPCs were typically 10.0.0.0/16, 10.1.0.0/16 etc... This has helped massively, thank yuo so much!

[guitardweep]

Really excellent talk. Total network noob here, I have learned more from this 1 hour session than 10 years of puzzling over it on my own.

[vishalverma]

To the Point, Precise and Perfect. This is the best presentation on AWS networking. THANK YOU.

[nuneskris]

By far one of the best presentation on the fundamentals.

[MadrasaTechOfficial]

One of the best videos I have ever watched. Clear English and concise without much jargon. I watched the video end to end and did not want it to end. Great Job!!

[imiims]

This is an absolutely brilliant lecture! Really straight forward and to the point and explained extremely well.😀

[thetecheart]

An excellent and relatively quick talk. One important thing worth mentioning while comparing VPC peering to Transit gateway is- VPC peering works inter-region, while transit gateway requires the candidate VPCs to be in the same region.

[shanindrakumar]

Such an awesome video to explain in clear detail. Finding it real useful as I brush up on my VPC stuff

[techiebaaz]

Great intro to AWS Networking

@Perry Wald and @Adam - You folks are great in explaining complex things in a easy to understand manner. Great Job!

[deeproot]

Amazing video to get started with VPC and different ways to connect VPC's with customer on-premise DC..Thanks Perry & Tom for the insights

[samyuktharajkumaran]

Best ever compilation of whatever you need to know in networking from a cloud perspective. A very fast-paced video with golden content.

[AramisNasirianfar]

He might be the best instructor I have ever learned things from. Such an amazing guy.
