Question 3

AWS Direct Connect

A service that enables you to launch Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instances and other resources into a virtual network that you’ve defined. It allows you to create a virtual network in your own logically-isolated section of the AWS cloud, with your own IP address range, and configure your own network services, such as virtual private gateways, subnets, and route tables.
