Yandex Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) is a service for creating cloud networks that are used for transmitting information within your cloud and connecting cloud resources to the internet.
With VPC, you can:
- Create subnets and connect cloud resources to them.
- Enable information transfer between the cloud resources.
- Connect the cloud resources to the internet.
- Create static routes and manage traffic using security groups.
- Route traffic to the internet via a NAT gateway.
Above you can see a general diagram showing the relationships between networks, subnets, and Yandex Cloud resources. In the management console, you can open a cloud network map that, similar to the diagram above, visualizes the connections between your resources located within a selected folder.
