Description: A VPC endpoint service allows you to create a service that can be accessed from your VPC through an endpoint. This type of service is essential for establishing secure and private connections between your Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) resources and other services, without the need to use public IP addresses or traverse the Internet. VPC endpoints are a solution that enhances network security and efficiency, allowing data to be transferred directly and quickly. Additionally, by using an endpoint, latency is reduced and performance is optimized, as traffic does not have to leave the private network. There are two types of VPC endpoints: Gateway and Interface. Gateway endpoints are primarily used for services like S3 and DynamoDB, while Interface endpoints allow connection to services that are not AWS, such as third-party applications. In summary, the VPC endpoint service is an essential tool for cloud network architecture, providing a secure and efficient way to access the resources and services needed for business operations.
