EC2 Address

The key link between an Amazon Web Services (AWS) EC2 Address and EC2 Instance is that they are both used to access cloud-based resources on the AWS platform. An EC2 Address is a publicly accessible IP address that can be used to access an AWS resource from outside of the virtual private cloud (VPC). An EC2 Instance, on the other hand, is a virtual machine within the VPC that provides compute power for applications hosted on the platform. The combination of an EC2 Address and an associated EC2 Instance collectively provide users with a secure method for accessing their resources in the cloud.

The link between an Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) address and EC2 network interface is that the former acts as a static IP address for the latter. The EC2 address is assigned to the network interface and can be used to identify it within an AWS Virtual Private Cloud (VPC). This allows users to access resources associated with the EC2 instance, such as web servers, databases, or applications. The EC2-network-interface also allows users to control traffic flow within their VPC by creating security groups, setting up routing tables, or configuring Network Access Control Lists (NACLs).

The link between an EC2-Address and an IP in AWS is that of a one-to-one mapping. An EC2 instance is assigned a unique IP address from the AWS address pool when it is launched, and this IP address can be used to access the instance over the internet. The unique EC2-Address is then associated with that same IP address, allowing for external applications to access specific instances by name rather than by their assigned IP addresses. This allows for easier scalability as additional resources can be added without having to reconfigure existing applications or services.
