Explanation

AWS Site-to-Site VPN: This provides a secure and encrypted connection between an on- premises environment and AWS. It is a cost-effective solution suitable for low bandwidth and small traffic needs. Site-to-Site VPN can be quickly set up by configuring a virtual private gateway on the AWS side and a customer gateway on the on-premises side. It uses standard IPsec protocol to establish the VPN tunnel. Cost-Effectiveness: Compared to AWS Direct Connect, which requires dedicated physical connections and higher setup costs, a Site-to-Site VPN is less expensive and easier to implement for smaller traffic requirements.
