Google Cloud service that creates secure VPN connections between your on-premises network and your Google Cloud VPC. Like creating a secure, encrypted highway tunnel that connects two separate cities.
A retail chain uses Cloud VPN Gateway to securely connect their store systems to inventory management applications running in Google Cloud.
All are managed IPsec site-to-site VPN services that encrypt traffic between on-premises networks and cloud virtual networks. Google Cloud uses Cloud VPN Gateways (HA VPN recommended) attached to a VPC; AWS uses a Virtual Private Gateway/Transit Gateway with Site-to-Site VPN; Azure uses VPN Gateway attached to a Virtual Network; OCI uses a DRG with IPSec tunnels.
