Enhance Instance Schedulers security by deploying it within a private VPC configuration

[aprnapwr]

Hello Team,

Customer using AWS Instance Scheduler has provided the following feature request to improve the security of the solution:

Addition of a VPC parameter for the Lambda function in the Instance Scheduler CloudFormation template.

This enhancement would allow the Lambda function to be deployed within a specified VPC, enabling secure access to AWS services (such as S3, CloudWatch, and RDS) through VPC endpoints.

Further, this adjustment would provide:

• Network isolation for the Lambda function by eliminating the need for public internet access.

• Private, VPC-only access to required AWS services through VPC endpoints, enhancing security and compliance.
