a VPC network the same way you'd think of a physical network, except that it is virtualized within GCP.

VPC networks are logically isolated from each other in GCP.

The network connects the resources to each other and to the Internet.

A single Google Cloud VPC can span multiple regions without communicating across the public Internet.

Google Cloud VPCs let you increase the IP space of any subnets without any workload shutdown or downtime.

Get private access to Google services, such as storage, big data, analytics, or machine learning, without having to give your service a public IP address.

Bare metal cluster operators are left with two lesser tools to bring user traffic into their clusters, “NodePort” and “externalIPs” services.
