Day Two Cloud 209: Cloud Essentials – Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs)

Author: Packet Pushers September 6, 2023 Duration: 48:12
Today's Day Two Cloud kicks off an occasional series on cloud essentials. For the first episode we discuss the Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). A VPC is an fundamental construct of a public cloud. It's essentially your slice of the shared cloud infrastructure, and you can launch and run other elements within a VPC to support your workload. Ned Bellavance walks through key VPC components including regions and AZs, networking and IP addressing, paid add-ons, data egress and associated charges, monitoring and troubleshooting, and basic security controls.

Day Two DevOps features hosts Ned Bellavance and Ethan Banks, who steer conversations about the ongoing, real-world work of running cloud platforms. This isn't a theoretical discussion; it's a practical look at the complexities that emerge after the initial deployment, drawing directly from their own extensive backgrounds. Each week, they bring in other seasoned professionals-technical leaders, trainers, and consultants-to unpack the specific nuances and unexpected challenges within environments like AWS and Azure. The dialogue spans critical areas including networking, security, and automation, all through a lens of operational DevOps. Listening to this podcast provides actionable insights and grounded perspectives that help practitioners navigate the continual evolution and management of their systems, moving beyond setup to sustained, confident operation. The focus is on the knowledge required for the long haul, offering a resource for those deep in the details of cloud infrastructure.
