In the docs it mentions about needing a VPN for connecting to services inside a VPC. I assume this is only the case if it’s a custom VPC with services in private subnets and not the default VPC?
c
mmmh services in a VPC cannot be accessed from outside of it, by default
r
Yes, but default VPC is a bit different
All of our deployments are in custom VPCs, just curious about the default VPC
c
interesting, I never considered it to be different – probably because of its subnets?

If we take an RDS instance as an example, when running
sst start
, your local just need to be able to connect to it.
If the RDS instance is accessible publicly, VPN isn’t required… (this makes sense only for dev environment of course)

OK, cool thanks
