Scaling And Modifying VPCs: Tips and Considerations
Subnet Resizing
To scale your VPC network you can try resizing the subnets. Calculate the IP ranges and consider the availability zones to resize subnets. While resizing subnet can lead to changes in firewall rules and resource allocation. Reconfigure the rules for firewall protection and monitor resource allocated for better networking experience.
If you are planning to scale the VPC network, go ahead with Global load balancers rather using regional. Using Global load balancers can help routing efficiently in different zones. This will let you route in all regions using a single VPN or interconnected or cloud router.
How To Create VPC Network In GCP?
A VPC or Virtual Private Cloud allows you to secure your virtual networking environment including IP addresses, subnets, and network gateways. VPC allows users to create a virtually protected environment for their virtual instances on the Cloud platform and have complete access to the environment. VPC provides users the facility to place and manage necessary resources in a virtual protected environment of the cloud provider like Google Cloud Platform(GCP). We as a user can create, customize, and delete VPC networks in GCP. In this article, we will be exploring how we can create a VPC network in the Google Cloud Platform.
