A worked example

Shown solved, with the whole explanation open: this is what every question here carries.

2-3Planning and implementing a cloud solution

An engineer asks whether one subnet can serve virtual machines in two different regions. What scope do VPC networks and subnets have?

Networks global, subnets zonalA subnet is not confined to a single zone.
Networks regional, subnets zonalNeither object is scoped that tightly.
Networks global, subnets regionalCorrect · your answerCorrect. One spans the globe, one a region.
Networks regional, subnets globalThe wider scope belongs to the network instead.

Correct.

Concept

A network is an addressing namespace and a subnet is a block of addresses that has to be reachable at low latency. The first can span the planet; the second is pinned to where its hardware sits.

Why C

VPC networks are global resources, and each one consists of one or more subnets, which are regional resources holding the IP address ranges.
