Overview
AWS Direct Connect is a method used to connect private networks, either from customer premises or data center locations, to AWS, notably to the customer’s VPC environment built within the AWS cloud.
Relationship between Direct Connect and PrivateLink
PrivateLink is similar to Direct Connect, in that it allows connecting privately between to locations on the network, but unlike Direct Connect, PrivateLink is used as a networking construct inside AWS to privately expose a service or an application residing in one VPC, that of a service provider, to other consumer VPCs within an AWS Region.
