Christopher Davis has an article discussing a recommended VPC subnet configuration. This is, of course, just one way of handling subnets within a VPC, but some of the principles outlined in Christopher’s article are definitely sound. This article is pretty high-level; I wish it had a bit more depth to it. Networking.
