How can a company facilitate the release from a development VPC to a production VPC?

  1. Create a new peering connection

  2. Add routes to existing peering connection

  3. Attach a second gateway to the VPC

  4. Utilize local routes for non-overlapping CIDR blocks

The correct answer is: Create a new peering connection

To facilitate the release from a development Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) to a production VPC, creating a new peering connection is an effective solution. A peering connection allows two VPCs to communicate with each other privately using their respective private IP addresses, thereby ensuring secure and efficient data transfer between the two environments. In the context of development to production, this approach enhances security and isolation, as the development environment can be tightly controlled and only specific resources can be shared with the production environment. By establishing a specific connection for this purpose, organizations can manage access and ensure stable and predictable communication without impacting the existing production resources. The other options, while they may address some communication needs within AWS, do not directly facilitate the required release between development and production environments. For example, adding routes to existing peering connections assumes that such connections already exist and may complicate routing if not properly managed. Attaching a second gateway to the VPC could cause issues with routing and does not inherently establish communication between the two VPCs. Finally, utilizing local routes for non-overlapping CIDR blocks does help manage communication but does not provide a structured and secure way to facilitate releases between distinct environments. Therefore, creating a new peering connection is the most
