The IBM Cloud VPC Transit Gateway allows you to establish inter-connectivity with your VPCs. Using Transit Gateway, you can establish connections between your VPC and:

  • Other VPCs - Allows to communication to resources in other VPCs within the same region or in other regions
  • IBM Cloud Classic Infrastructure - Allows for communication to resources still running on IBM Cloud Classic Infrastructure
  • Direct Link - Allows for communication to on-prem resources

The following example depicts how Transit Gateway devices can be used to connect VPCs together.
