Google Cloud - Virtual Network (9)

Google Cloud Virtual Network, or Virtual Private Cloud (VPC), is a comprehensive networking service provided by Google Cloud Platform (GCP). It enables you to create, manage, and scale a private network within the Google Cloud environment.

Key components and features of Google Cloud VPC include:

• Subnets: Logical subdivisions of a VPC network that allow you to segment your network according to different zones and regions.

• IP Address Management: Manages both internal IP addresses (used within the VPC) and external IP addresses (used to communicate outside the VPC).

• Routes: Directs network traffic within the VPC and between different VPCs, as well as between the VPC and the internet.

• Firewall Rules: Controls incoming and outgoing traffic to and from network instances, ensuring security and compliance with organizational policies.

• VPC Peering: Connects VPCs in different projects or organizations, allowing them to communicate privately using internal IP addresses.

• Cloud VPN: Establishes secure connections between your on-premises network and your Google Cloud VPC network using IPsec VPN tunnels.

• Cloud Interconnect: Provides high-bandwidth, low-latency connections between your on-premises network and Google Cloud through dedicated connections.

• Shared VPC: Allows multiple projects to share a common VPC network, enabling centralized control and management of network resources.

• Private Google Access: Allows instances without external IP addresses to reach Google services and APIs via internal IP addresses.

• Load Balancing: Distributes traffic across multiple instances to ensure high availability and reliability of applications and services.

Integrating Google Cloud VPC with SymphonyAI Service Automation enhances network management by automating processes, improving monitoring, and streamlining workflows. This integration helps automate routine tasks, improve monitoring and alerting, enforce compliance, and streamline workflows, ultimately leading to better management of network resources and enhanced operational efficiency.
