…private subnets. Set 'EnableDnsHostnames' on the VPC to 'true' to closer mirror default VPC settings.
These enhancements help to create a more user-friendly environment for an end-user. By changing from the 'Role' tag to the 'Name' tag, users can now more easily find their resources via the AWS Management Console, as the 'Name' tag is displayed for the appropriate resources.
Additionally, the S3 VPC endpoint enables private subnets to take advantage of direct access to S3 buckets without having to traverse a NAT gateway/instance, thus eliminating a potential bandwidth bottleneck.
The final change in this pull request is the addition of the 'EnableDnsHostnames' VPC property, setting it to 'true'. This makes VPCs launched with this template mimic an account's default VPC. In my opinion, this is something that an end-user expects when creating additional VPCs and enables the use of DNS dependent AWS services (such as EMR) out of the box.
I am releasing these changes under the Apache 2.0 license; following the licensing on this code repository.
