VPC enables us to launch Amazon services to a Virtual network. This virtual network is owned by its own data centers with the benefits of using AWS services. In each account by default, VPC is already configured. The default VPC is used for testing purposes. The custom VPC is used for more secure network defined in the private subnet. The instances created in default VPC can’t communicate by default. Hardware VPN connection is used for connecting instance to the data center. (more…)

Machine Learning
Machine learning is a variant of artificial intelligence (AI) that makes the systems for self-learning from the data enrolled without being specially programmed. ML aims at the improvement of computer programs that makes the systems to learn for themselves with the accessed data. The overall learning process initiates with observations from the data accessed such as searches, instructions to find out a particular data. The primary scenario is to allow computers to learn artificially to perform according to our needs. Machine learning is highly related to computational statistics, which aims …
