Advanced user of AWS PrivateLinkPrivateLink is definitely an AWS service that creates private VPC endpoints, allowing direct, secure connectivity between your AWS VPCs without traversing the general public Internet. Because Snowflake is implemented as a VPC, PrivateLink enables creating a highly-secure network between Snowflake and your other VPCs (in the exact same AWS region), fully protected from unauthorized external access.
After Snowflake enables PrivateLink for your account, that might take as much as 2 weeks, you need to complete the procedure by configuring your VPC environment as described in this topic.
When you request PrivateLink to be enabled, you must provide Snowflake with a list of all your AWS account IDs.
We use Amazon VPC privatelink to secure the traffic in a scalable manner , simplify our network management and also to accelerate cloud migration .
