A VPC peering connection is a networking connection between two VPCs that enables you to route traffic between the two VPCs using private IPv4 or IPv6 addresses. Instances in either VPC can communicate with each other as if they are within the same network. You can create a VPC peering connection between your own VPCs, or with a VPC in another AWS account. The VPCs can be in different AWS regions which is also known as an inter-region VPC peering connection.

With the adoption of multiple cloud platforms to take advantage of their individual strengths and cost advantages, it is not uncommon for organisations to build applications and solutions that utilise multiple cloud platforms

Amazon Web Services or AWS Cloud offers pay as you go on demand compute resources that allow you to run workloads and store data on AWS network infrastructure which removes the need to buy and maintain expensive computer hardware in-house.

There are many reasons why you would want to visualize your AWS, GCP and Azure environments. Knowing exactly what is running based on the actual resources running in your cloud environments is probably the number one reason to use an automated Cloud Visualization Tool over manually drawing your network diagrams.

If you are using AWS to build solutions that consist of more than a handful of resources you will appreciate the need for accurate AWS VPC Diagrams. The best form of documentation to be able to easily communicate how your AWS network is constructed is a network topology diagram.

Defining Your Organisation

Google Cloud recommend your network resources should be organized hierarchically to enable you to manage access control and permissions across your organization. Grouping together all the network resources that each team or project requires makes it easier to permit or deny access according to which business unit each team member belongs.

Security is possibly the most important consideration for any organization storing data or hosting applications on public cloud infrastructure.
