Hi, I just want to be clear since this is important. Is VPC traffic between servers exposed to other users in the same data center? I know they just rolled out this feature in April and there is a lot of stuff on the web from before then saying that your private network traffic is exposed to other users in the same region. I get the indication that the VPC roll out changed this but I want to be sure. Can anyone offer me caution or reassurance on relying on VPC to secure data that is sent between servers?

Hi there @jacobherman4,
Compared to the old private network, with the new DigitalOcean VPC networks, your resources are completely isolated from both other customers and other VPCs on your own account.
You can also check out the official documentation here for more details: https://www.digitalocean.com/docs/networking/vpc/
