A Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) in Google Cloud Platform (GCP) is a private network space within Google Cloud. It’s designed to give you customizability and control over your networking environment, including selections for IP address ranges, subnets, network gateways, and more. Here’s an overview of its key features and functionalities:

  1. Customizable IP Address Range: You can specify your IP address range for the VPC, giving you flexibility in designing your network.
  2. Subnets: You can segment your VPC into subnets, which can help manage and organize resources within different geographical regions or zones.
  3. Routing and Firewall Rules: VPCs in GCP come with advanced routing and firewall capabilities, allowing you to control incoming and outgoing traffic to and from your network.
  4. VPN and Interconnect: VPCs can be securely connected to your on-premises network using Cloud VPN or Interconnect, providing a hybrid cloud setup.
  5. Private and Public Access Options: VPCs support personal access options for Google services and internet access through Cloud NAT, ensuring secure and efficient connectivity.
  6. Shared VPCs: This feature allows an organization to share network resources like subnets, routes, and firewalls with other projects within the same organization.
  7. VPC Peering: VPC peering allows you to connect your VPC network with another VPC network in a different project or organization within GCP, facilitating secure and efficient inter-project communication.
  8. Network Security: Advanced security features like Identity-Aware Proxy and Cloud Armor can be integrated with your VPC to enhance security.
  9. Monitoring and Logging: Integration with Cloud Monitoring and Cloud Logging provides visibility into your network’s performance and logs.

When setting up a VPC in Google Cloud, planning your network architecture carefully is essential, considering factors like the number of subnets, the IP address ranges, and how you’ll manage access and security.
