>> Hey everybody, welcome back.
00:00
In this lecture, we're going to talk about
00:00
a little thing called VPC peering.
00:00
So learning objectives are gonna be to
00:00
describe this concept to you.
00:00
This is something that we need to know
00:00
about when we go into any Cloud environments.
00:00
Appearing networks is something that's
00:00
important whenever you're doing any type of networking,
00:00
especially as it relates to the Cloud.
00:00
What is VPC peering?
00:00
Well, this is privately connecting two different VPCs.
00:00
So far we've talked about
00:00
these virtual cloud networks called VPCs.
00:00
Within you, you can have many subnets.
00:00
VPC peering is when you connect
00:00
one private cloud network
00:00
to another private cloud network.
00:00
This is able to be done.
00:00
But VPC peering,
00:00
one thing you need to know is that there's
00:00
no such thing as transitive peering
00:00
or that's not allowed.
00:00
There is such a thing as it,
00:00
but they don't allow it.
00:00
Now, what is transitive VPC peering?
00:00
Well, if we were to take this idea where there's
00:00
three different VPCs, we have A,
00:00
we have B, and we have C.
00:00
A can communicate to B
00:00
directly because there's a connection there.
00:00
B can communicate to
00:00
C directly because there's a connection there.
00:00
However, A is not directly connected to
00:00
C. A has no way of actually
00:00
communicating to C and transitive peering
00:00
would be that A can communicate to C via B.
00:00
That's not possible. That is
00:00
the actual concept that we're referring
00:00
to when we talk about transitive peering.
00:00
There's no way that they can do that.
00:00
There's also no overlapping sliders
00:00
which I threw in there.
00:00
But as far as trends that appearing can't be done.
00:00
What you can do is you can create a direct connection
00:00
between VPC A and VPC C,
00:00
so that they can communicate directly.
00:00
But you cannot communicate
00:00
indirectly through another virtual private cloud.
00:00
I hope that makes sense. Go ahead and wrap this one up.
00:00
To summarize, we covered the idea of the VPC peering.
00:00
This is going to be
00:00
a question on your exam. I always say think it will.
00:00
Everyone I've spoken through, they've
00:00
all gotten this question.
00:00
It's very common question.
00:00
Given that this is architecturally related
00:00
because we're talking about Cloud Architects
00:00
or Cloud Architectures.
00:00
You may see this because this is
00:00
the solution architect associate.
00:00
Keep that in mind. It's a common got you.
00:00
You want to make sure you're aware of it.
00:00
I'll see you in the next lesson.
