Introducing organization VPCs
Aiven has launched organization-wide virtual private clouds (VPCs) as a limited availability feature. Now you can create and peer with organization VPCs while continuing to use your existing project VPCs.
An organization VPC allows you to create a single VPC peering connection to multiple Aiven project within the organization. Beyond that, organization VPCs bring simplified connectivity and networking, easier operations and maintenance, improved scalability and flexibility, and reduced complexity.
