AWS Infrastructure
- Some AWS services runs in a regional base, some in global base
- 3 resilience: global resilient, region resilient, AZ resilient
AWS Region
- Full compute, storage, DB, AI analytics….
- A region has region code and region name
benefit: geographic separation - isolated fault domain, different governance
location control - performance

VPC(Virtual Private Could)
Intro
- VPC is a virtual network inside AWS
- When you create a private service in AWS, you associate it with a VPC and one or more subnets within that VPC
- A VPC is within 1 account and 1 region, so it is regional service, means it is regional resilient
- 2 types: default VPC, custom VPC, only 1 default VPC in a region but a region can have a lot of custom VPC
- No traffic between 2 VPC, unless you configure
- VPC structure, default VPC CIDR is always 172.31.0.0/16
- /20 subnet in each AZ in the region
- Do not use default VPC
