AWS networking — VPC design, Route 53, CloudFront CDN, ALB/NLB load balancers, VPC endpoints.
Stub — full skill pending. Security group and VPC security patterns are in tech/aws/security.
| Service | Purpose |
|---|---|
| VPC | Isolated network; subnets, route tables, internet gateway, NAT gateway |
| ALB | Layer 7 load balancer; path-based routing, SSL termination, target groups |
| NLB | Layer 4 load balancer; ultra-low latency, static IP, TCP/UDP |
| Route 53 | DNS management, health checks, weighted routing, latency routing |
| CloudFront | Global CDN; caches S3, ALB, API Gateway origins |
| VPC Endpoints | Private connectivity to S3/DynamoDB without internet gateway |
| PrivateLink | Private connectivity to other AWS services or SaaS |

├── Public subnet A 10.0.1.0/24 (ALB, NAT Gateway)
├── Public subnet B 10.0.2.0/24 (ALB multi-AZ)
├── Private subnet A 10.0.11.0/24 (Lambda, ECS tasks, EC2)

Private subnets reach internet via NAT Gateway in the public subnet. Data subnets have no internet route — accessible only from private subnets.
