Subnet
A subnet is a unique CIDR block with a range of IP addresses in a VPC. All resources in a VPC must be deployed on subnets. Subnets in a VPC cannot overlap with each other.
- All instances in different subnets of the same VPC can communicate with each other by default, and the subnets can be located in different AZs. If you have a VPC with two subnets in it and they are located in different AZs, they can communicate with each other by default.
- A cloud resource can be in a different AZ from its subnet. For example, a cloud server in AZ 1 can be in a subnet in AZ 3. If AZ 3 becomes faulty, cloud servers in AZ 1 can still use the subnet in AZ 3, and your services are not interrupted.
