Explanation: Amazon VPC stands for Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC). Amazon VPC lets you provision a logically isolated section of the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud where you can launch AWS resources in a virtual network that you define. You have complete control over your virtual networking environment, including selection of your own IP address range, creation of sub-nets, and configuration of route tables and network gateways. You can also create a hardware Vir-tual Private Network (VPN) connection between your corporate datacenter and your VPC and lev-erage the AWS cloud as an extension of your corporate datacenter.
