What it shows

  • A central Transit Gateway directs all inter-VPC traffic to inspection.
  • Centralized firewall appliances inspect flows without per-VPC instances.
  • Eliminates complex N*(N-1) mesh peering while enforcing zero-trust policies.

The takeaway

Route inter-VPC traffic through a dedicated inspection hub instead of messy mesh peering.
