What is VPC?

A virtual private cloud (VPC) is a virtual network dedicated to your account. You have full control over your VPC. For example, you can specify the CIDR block and configure route tables and gateways for your VPC. You can also deploy resources, such as Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instances, True IDC Cloud RDS instances, and Server Load Balancer (SLB) instances in your VPC.

You can connect your VPC to on-premises networks over Express Connect circuits to create a custom network environment. This lets you easily migrate your applications to the cloud and extend the capabilities of your on-premises environment.
