Default VPC Overview

  • A default VPC is suitable for getting started quickly, and for launching public instances such as a blog or simple website.

  • If you want to have a more specific VPC tailored to your requirements, it is recommended to use a Custom VPC (nondefault VPC).

  • You can only have 1 default VPC per region.

  • Each VPC subnet is in a different Availability Zone and together, they span across all the Availability Zones in the region.

  • The CIDR Range is always the same (172.31.0.0/16).
