Amazon VPC Lattice
#129 · Level 4 · Operations and specialized areas · Advanced networking and hybridConcept
Section titled “Concept”Amazon VPC Lattice lets services in different VPCs and accounts talk to each other easily and securely. Here each app is set up as a service, and several services together make a service network. From a VPC connected to this service network, services can be called by name. Who can call whom is decided with IAM-based auth policies. Behind the scenes, a service can run on EC2, containers or Lambda.
