"short_description": "Deploy a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) on IBM Cloud, offering full configurability and flexibility for diverse workloads.",
"long_description": "The Cloud automation for VPC sets up a foundational IBM Cloud [Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)](https://www.ibm.com/cloud/vpc) environment. It lays the groundwork for adding Virtual Servers Instances (VSI) or Red Hat OpenShift clusters and other advanced resources. This can be used as a base deployable architecture for many others deployable architectures like [Cloud automation for Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform on VPC](https://cloud.ibm.com/catalog/7a4d68b4-cf8b-40cd-a3d1-f49aff526eb3/architecture/deploy-arch-ibm-ocp-vpc-1728a4fd-f561-4cf9-82ef-2b1eeb5da1a8-global), [Cloud automation for Red Hat OpenShift AI](https://cloud.ibm.com/catalog/7a4d68b4-cf8b-40cd-a3d1-f49aff526eb3/architecture/deploy-arch-ibm-ocp-ai-ba708aed-bb8a-4ac0-83a7-53a066701db5-global), [Cloud automation for Virtual Servers for Virtual Private Cloud](https://cloud.ibm.com/catalog/7a4d68b4-cf8b-40cd-a3d1-f49aff526eb3/architecture/deploy-arch-ibm-vsi-vpc-28e2b12c-858f-4ae8-8717-60db8cec2e6e-global).\n\nℹ️ This Terraform-based automation is part of a broader suite of IBM-maintained Infrastructure as Code (IaC) assets, each following the naming pattern \"Cloud automation for *servicename*\" and focusing on single IBM Cloud service. These single-service deployable architectures can be used on their own to streamline and automate service deployments through an [IaC approach](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/secure-enterprise?topic=secure-enterprise-understanding-projects), or assembled together into a broader [automated IaC stack](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/secure-enterprise?topic=secure-enterprise-config-stack) to automate the deployment of an end-to-end solution architecture.",

"long_description":"This deployable architecture provides a foundational IBM Cloud [Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)](https://www.ibm.com/cloud/vpc) environment that serves as the base for deploying compute and advanced resources. It establishes the core networking and security framework without including Virtual Server Instances (VSI) or Red Hat OpenShift clusters by default. This architecture can be extended to support a variety of deployable architectures, such as [Cloud automation for Virtual Servers for Virtual Private Cloud](https://cloud.ibm.com/catalog/7a4d68b4-cf8b-40cd-a3d1-f49aff526eb3/architecture/deploy-arch-ibm-vsi-vpc-28e2b12c-858f-4ae8-8717-60db8cec2e6e-global), [Cloud automation for Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform on VPC](https://cloud.ibm.com/catalog/7a4d68b4-cf8b-40cd-a3d1-f49aff526eb3/architecture/deploy-arch-ibm-ocp-vpc-1728a4fd-f561-4cf9-82ef-2b1eeb5da1a8-global), [Cloud automation for Red Hat OpenShift AI](https://cloud.ibm.com/catalog/7a4d68b4-cf8b-40cd-a3d1-f49aff526eb3/architecture/deploy-arch-ibm-ocp-ai-ba708aed-bb8a-4ac0-83a7-53a066701db5-global), and other cloud automation architectures.
