Introduction to Google Cloud Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)

A Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) is an essential component of Google Cloud Platform (GCP) that enables you to provision a logically isolated network environment within the cloud. It provides a flexible and secure networking infrastructure that allows you to run and manage Google Cloud resources with the same security and management capabilities typically associated with on-premises infrastructure. This virtual network is entirely software-defined, giving you control over how your resources communicate with each other and the outside world.

What is a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)?

A VPC allows organizations to create a secure and scalable network that can host applications and services in a manner similar to traditional on-premises environments, but with the added benefits of cloud flexibility and scalability. With VPC, you can customize and control your networking setup, including IP address ranges, subnets, and routing rules, enabling you to meet specific requirements for your applications.
