Description: VPC flow logs capture information about the IP traffic going to and from the network interfaces in your virtual private cloud (VPC). These logs provide details about network connections, including the source and destination IP addresses, source and destination ports, the protocol used, and the size of the packets. This information is crucial for monitoring and analyzing traffic, allowing network administrators to identify usage patterns, detect anomalies, and optimize network performance. Flow logs can be stored in storage solutions for later analysis and can be integrated with data analysis and security tools to enhance visibility and security of the network infrastructure. Additionally, flow logs are a valuable tool for meeting audit and compliance requirements, as they allow organizations to effectively track and document network traffic.
