Study Notes
AWS Cloud Networking
Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)
- A virtual private cloud (VPC) is a virtual network dedicated to your AWS account, allowing for customized networking configurations.
- Supports IPv4 and IPv6 and allows you to create a virtual private cloud (VPC) with a range of IP addresses.
Subnets
- A subnet is a range of IP addresses in your VPC, allowing for organized and isolated networks within the VPC.
- Multiple subnets can be created within a VPC, and each subnet must be a subset of the VPC's IP address range.
- Supports public and private subnets, offering flexibility in network architecture.
Route 53
- Route 53 is a highly available and scalable Domain Name System (DNS) service, allowing you to register domain names and route internet traffic to your resources.
- Supports health checking, traffic flow control, and domain name registration.
Elastic IP Addresses
- Elastic IP addresses are static, public IP addresses that can be allocated to an instance or a network interface.
- Supports IPv4 and IPv6, and allows you to maintain a consistent IP address even if the underlying instance is replaced.
Elastic Load Balancer (ELB)
- Elastic Load Balancer (ELB) is a load balancer that automatically distributes incoming traffic across multiple instances.
- Supports multiple protocols (HTTP, HTTPS, TCP, and UDP), health checking, and auto scaling.
Network Access Control Lists (NACLs)
- NACLs are a set of rules that control incoming and outgoing traffic at the subnet level.
- Supports allow and deny rules for specific protocols and ports, and are evaluated in order with the last rule being the default deny rule.
Security Groups
- Security Groups are a set of rules that control incoming and outgoing traffic at the instance level.
- Supports allow rules for specific protocols and ports, and are evaluated in order with the last rule being the default deny rule.
Direct Connect
- Direct Connect is a dedicated, high-speed network connection from your premises to AWS.
- Supports multiple connections and locations, and allows you to bypass the internet and establish a secure, private connection to AWS.
VPN
- VPN is a secure, dedicated network connection from your premises to AWS over the internet.
- Supports multiple connections and locations, and allows you to establish a secure, private connection to AWS over the internet.
