Description: A VPC subnet routing table is an essential component in the network architecture of cloud computing environments that controls the routing of traffic within a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). This table defines how data packets are directed between subnets and to or from the Internet. Each routing table contains a series of rules, known as routes, that specify the destination of traffic and the next hop it should take. Routing tables can be associated with one or more subnets, allowing for granular control over data flow. Additionally, cloud providers allow the creation of custom routing tables, providing flexibility to adapt to different network architectures and security requirements. Routing tables are fundamental to ensuring that traffic is directed correctly, thereby optimizing the performance and security of applications deployed in the cloud. In summary, the VPC subnet routing table is a key tool for managing network traffic in cloud environments, ensuring that data flows efficiently and securely between cloud resources.
