AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner — Question 681

Which AWS service or feature can a company use to create a private, secured and scalable network environment in the AWS Cloud?

Answer options

• A. Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS)
• B. Amazon S3
• C. Amazon VPC
• D. Route tables

Correct answer: C

Explanation

Amazon VPC (Virtual Private Cloud) lets you provision a logically isolated section of the AWS Cloud to launch resources in a virtual network that you define and scale. While route tables are a feature used within a VPC to direct network traffic, they do not establish the entire network environment itself. Amazon ECS is a container management service and Amazon S3 is an object storage service, neither of which is used to create virtual networks.
