Streamline access to most used AWS services using VPC Endpoints

Networking & Content Delivery Blog



This article provides a solution to streamline access to frequently used AWS services using Amazon VPC Endpoints. VPC Endpoints allow you to privately connect your applications to AWS services as if they were in your VPC, without using internet gateways or NAT gateways.

Specifically, the article covers:

  • Identifying the most used AWS services from your VPCs using Route 53 Resolver query logs and AWS Lambda
  • Estimating traffic volume to AWS services using VPC Flow Logs (optional)
  • Reviewing considerations like VPC endpoint types, costs, and security
  • Creating VPC Endpoints for the identified AWS services
  • Automating the solution using AWS CloudFormation templates
