Answer: Internet gateway

## Explanation **Internet gateway** is the correct answer because: - An **Internet Gateway (IGW)** is a horizontally scaled, redundant, and highly available VPC component that allows communication between instances in your VPC and the internet - It enables inbound traffic from the internet to reach resources in your VPC - It also allows outbound traffic from your VPC to the internet **Why the other options are incorrect:** - **AWS Fargate**: A serverless compute engine for containers that runs on AWS infrastructure - it doesn't route internet traffic - **VPC peering connection**: Allows network traffic routing between two VPCs, but doesn't handle internet traffic routing - **AWS WAF**: A web application firewall that protects web applications from common web exploits, but doesn't route internet traffic to VPC resources In AWS networking, the Internet Gateway is specifically designed to provide a target in your VPC route tables for internet-routable traffic, making it the essential component for routing inbound internet traffic to VPC resources.
