VPC Endpoint for S3: A gateway endpoint for Amazon S3 enables you to privately connect your VPC to S3 without requiring an internet gateway, NAT device, VPN connection, or AWS Direct Connect connection.

Configuration Steps:

In the VPC console, navigate to "Endpoints" and create a new endpoint.

Select the service name for S3 (com.amazonaws.region.s3).

Choose the VPC and the subnets where your EC2 instances are running.

Update the route tables for the selected subnets to include a route pointing to the endpoint.

Security Compliance: By configuring an S3 gateway endpoint, all traffic between the VPC and S3 stays within the AWS network, complying with the company's security regulations to avoid internet traversal.
