AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C01)- Introduction to Amazon VPC Part 1

The video introduces Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), explaining how to build a virtual data center in the cloud. It covers configuring isolated networks, choosing IP address ranges, creating subnets, and configuring route tables. The video also discusses regional VPCs, availability zones, and different VPC configurations, including public and private subnets, and VPN access. The importance of private IP addresses and network address translation for internet access is highlighted.

What is the primary purpose of a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) in AWS?

• To provide a public network for all AWS users

• To configure an isolated network within AWS

• To replace on-premise data centers entirely

• To offer free internet access to AWS resources

How can workloads in a VPC access the internet?

• Through a VPN connection

• Directly through public IP addresses

• Via network gateways

• Using a dedicated internet line

What is a key characteristic of a VPC in terms of its geographical deployment?

• It spans an entire AWS region

• It is specific to a single availability zone

• It is global and not tied to any region

• It is limited to a single data center

Which of the following IP address ranges is considered private and non-routable on the internet?

• 192.0.2.0/24

• 172.16.0.0/12

• 203.0.113.0/24

• 198.51.100.0/24

What is a common use case for a VPC with a single public subnet?

• Hosting a large-scale enterprise application

• Testing and development purposes

• Establishing a secure VPN connection

• Running a private database server

How does a VPC with public and private subnets typically handle internet access for private resources?

• Via a dedicated leased line

• Using a NAT gateway

• Directly through public IPs

• Through a direct connect service

What is the advantage of using a VPC with a private subnet and VPN access?

• It eliminates the need for on-premise servers

• It extends the data center into the cloud securely

• It provides a cost-effective way to host public websites

• It allows for public internet access
