VPC How-Tos

A Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) is a private network interface for collections of DigitalOcean resources. VPC networks are inaccessible from the public internet and other VPC networks, and traffic on them doesn’t count against bandwidth usage.


Getting Started

Create a VPC and add resources like Droplets, load balancers, managed databases, and Kubernetes clusters to it.
Automatically add new resources to a VPC network when you create them.
Manually enable VPC networking on an existing Droplet.

VPC Network Management

Migrate existing Droplets and managed databases into and between VPC networks.
Set a default VPC for a datacenter region.
Configure a Droplet as a gateway that allows you to access your backend Droplets from the public internet.
Permanently delete VPC networks from your account.
