Virtual Private Cloud, or VPC, allows the user of a cloud environment to define Virtual Private Networks, manipulate them, control them, tear them down, recreate them, and deploy workloads into those definitions. In this video Ryan Sumner with IBM Cloud explains why VPC matters to you and the many advantages you will receive with IBM Cloud VPC. Enterprises that host their business applications and websites on IBM Cloud VPC can take advantage of elastic load balancing and the resiliency of availability zones along with secure virtual firewalls, just to name a few benefits.
