When you use Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) to create a new VPC, you have control over IP addressing, subnets, route tables, network gateways, security groups, and network ACLs. It allows you to design and customize your own virtual network in the AWS cloud.

When you use Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) to create a new VPC, you are essentially creating your own isolated section of the AWS cloud where you can deploy your resources and configure your virtual network environment. Amazon VPC allows you to have control over IP addressing, subnets, route tables, network gateways, security groups, and network ACLs.

Some of the things that happen when you create a new VPC include:

  1. Assigning an IP address range to your VPC.
  2. Creating subnets within the VPC.
  3. Configuring route tables to determine how traffic flows.
  4. Creating internet gateways to allow communication with the internet.
  5. Setting up security groups to control inbound and outbound traffic.

Overall, using Amazon VPC gives you the flexibility to design and customize your own virtual network in the AWS cloud.
