A company is transitioning to a hybrid cloud model and needs to ensure continuous, secure connectivity between their on-premises data center and their virtual private cloud (VPC). Which type of cloud gateway would be most appropriate for this scenario?
A VPN Gateway is the correct choice because it creates a secure network connection over the internet that enables safe communication between the on-premises data center and the VPC. This gateway uses tunneling and encryption to ensure data security and integrity. Internet gateways are not appropriate as they mainly facilitate outbound and inbound access to the internet rather than secure, site-to-site connections. NAT gateways are mostly used for mapping local private IP addresses to a public address before transferring the information to the internet, which is not directly relevant to creating secure channels for hybrid connectivity.
