Abstract
A distributed cloud computing system is disclosed that includes a controller configured to deploy a transit gateway and a first gateway in a security virtual private cloud (VPC) in a cloud computing network, wherein the first gateway is configured to connect to a first firewall instance deployed within the security VPC, and logic. The logic, upon execution by one or more processors, causes performance of operations including receiving network traffic at the transit gateway from an originating VPC deployed within the cloud computing network, routing the network traffic from the transit gateway to the first gateway, providing the network traffic to the first firewall instance for inspection, and routing the network traffic to a destination VPC deployed within the cloud computing network. In embodiments, the first gateway is connected to a plurality of firewall instances, where each instance of the plurality of firewall instances is an active firewall instance.
