Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)
A Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) is a secure, isolated section of a larger cloud provider's infrastructure that allows individuals or organizations to run their applications and store data. It offers the benefits of cloud computing, such as scalability and flexibility, while also providing enhanced security and control over the resources used. Users can define their own network configurations, manage access controls, and create virtual machines, all within this private environment. Essentially, a VPC combines the advantages of cloud resources with the security and customization typically found in private data centers.
