100 Days 100 AWS Projects (Complete Guide) - Implementing AWS VPC Like a Pro: Full Hands-on Tutorial | Day 07/100

WELCOME TO DAY 07! ☁️ Yesterday, we designed the blueprint. Today, we break ground. In this "Cloud Story," we are moving away from theory and getting our hands dirty in the AWS Management Console to build a Production-Grade, 2-Tier VPC Architecture. Watch Day 06: https://youtu.be/V8fPvlhEl24 PROJECT RESOURCES & LINKS Step-by-Step Guide (GitHub): https://github.com/Priyanshu885588/100-days-100-aws-projects/tree/main/day07-Building%20a%20Production-Grade%20VPC Kodekloud labs: https://kodekloud.com/studio/labs If you’ve ever wondered how companies like Netflix or Airbnb secure their backend data, this video is the answer. We are building a custom network from scratch, setting up public/private subnets, and testing the "Chain of Trust" using Security Group referencing. No Cap—just real-world engineering. What We Are Building Today: ✅ Custom VPC Setup: Creating our dev-vpc with the 10.0.0.0/16 range. ✅ Subnet Architecture: Deploying a Public Subnet (Front Porch) and a Private Subnet (The Vault). ✅ Internet Connectivity: Configuring the Internet Gateway (IGW) and Public Route Tables. ✅ Security Group Chaining: The "Pro" move—locking down our App Server so ONLY the Web Server can talk to it. ✅ The Live Test: Validating connectivity via SSH and ICMP (Ping) to prove our isolation works. 🕒 TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 - Introduction: Why we build custom VPCs 1:10 - Phase 1: Creating the VPC & Subnets 3:45 - Phase 2: Configuring the Internet Gateway (IGW) 5:20 - Phase 3: The Brain of the Network (Route Tables) 8:15 - Phase 4: Setting up "Chain of Trust" Security Groups 11:30 - Phase 5: Launching EC2 Instances (Web vs. App) 14:45 - The Final Test: Validating the Architecture 18:00 - Summary & What's coming on Day 08! 🌟 ABOUT THE SERIES: I am building 100 AWS projects in 100 days to go from cloud beginner to AWS Architect. Each video is a hands-on project designed to teach practical skills used in real DevOps, SRE, and Cloud Engineering roles.
