monitoring</h2> <p>With reasons such as security, data modernization, growth, flexibility, and cost driving more businesses to move to the cloud, organizations that have their data on-premises are using the cloud for their vital data. Amazon Web Services (AWS) continues to be one of the most sought after and in demand, and Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) is gaining popularity among those with a majority of their data on-premises.</p> <p class="p0">Amazon VPC is a cloud computing service that allows you to define and launch your own private cloud by isolating a section of the AWS cloud. The Amazon VPC mirrors a traditional network and includes a VPC dedicated to your AWS account, a subnet, a route table that determines where the traffic is directed, a VPC endpoint that enables you to privately connect to the VPC and related AWS services, Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) block, and an internet gateway that is attached you the VPC. You have complete control over your VPC, and can customize network configuration and define the visibility of your network and resources on the Amazon cloud.</p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="flex-row"> <div class="flex-cell tac"><img src="/products/netflow/images/amazon-vpc-logs.png" alt="" /></div> <div class="flex-cell"> <div class="nfa-ct"> <h2>Amazon VPC flow logs</h2> <p>AWS provides two methods to monitor the network traffic in your Amazon VPC. They are Amazon VPC traffic mirroring and Amazon VPC flow logs.</p> <p>Amazon VPC flow logs allows you to monitor, collect, and analyse network flow logs which is the IN and OUT IP traffic going to and from your AWS resources. This includes information about source and destination IP addresses, ports, protocol number , packet count and byte count. It also includes information about what traffic is allowed, what is denied, and an action (accept or reject). Flow logs can be created for an entire VPC, a subnet, or just a network interface. This collected data can then be pushed to Amazon CloudWatch or Amazon S3(Simple Storage Service)storage.</p> <p class="p0">You can use this feature to gain visibility into your network traffic patterns and activities, detect network anomalies, and troubleshoot connectivity, configuration, and security issues.</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="sec-row bg-alt"> <div class="container tac"> <h2>NetFlow Analyzer and Amazon VPC flow monitoring</h2> <p>ManageEngine NetFlow Analyzer now integrates with and extends support for Amazon VPC to make cloud monitoring easier.
