AWS Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs) Projects: Secure NetWorking, Resource Management, and Cloud Architecture

Master AWS Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs)-the foundation of creating isolated, secure sections within the cloud and enabling seamless deployment and management of resources. This course with instructor Rick Crisci provides hands-on interactive labs designed to help you elevate your networking skills with practical exercises that cover the configuration, management, and troubleshooting of AWS VPCs.

Get clear, step-by-step guidance through real-world scenarios, helping you build confidence in configuring and optimizing VPCs. Each lab is carefully curated to give you experience with AWS VPC architecture, subnets, route tables, security groups, peering, endpoints, load balancers, VPC flow logs, VPNs, and more.

Learning objectives

• Apply route tables, subnets, and network ACLs to secure and segment VPC network traffic effectively.
• Gain hands-on experience in VPC lifecycle management by deleting and recreating the default VPC.
• Plan and allocate IP addresses effectively using CIDR ranges within a VPC.
• Enable internet connectivity for VPC instances by attaching an internet gateway.
• Practice setting up VPC, subnets, and internet gateway components.
• Configure route tables to manage traffic between public subnets and internal resources or the internet.
• Deploy scalable web applications in public subnets and verify routing configurations.
• Securely enable outbound internet access from private subnets using an NAT gateway.
• Manage traffic flow between private instances and external resources via private subnet route tables.
• Practice configuring an NAT gateway and testing private subnet connectivity.
• Establish VPC peering connections to enable communication between separate VPCs.
• Configure and manage VPC peering effectively.
