Virtual Networks
Virtual Networks are a core feature of Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) providers, enabling the creation of isolated, software-defined network environments within a cloud infrastructure. These networks allow users to connect virtual machines (VMs), storage, and applications securely, replicating traditional physical networking capabilities while offering greater flexibility and scalability. Virtual networks support features such as subnets, firewalls, VPNs, and load balancers to optimize performance and security. They enable seamless communication between cloud and on-premises resources, facilitating hybrid cloud deployments. By abstracting network management from physical hardware, virtual networks enhance reliability, simplify administration, and enable dynamic scaling based on workload demands.
