L1 ConstructAWS::AppMesh::VirtualGateway

CfnVirtualGateway

Creates a virtual gateway. A virtual gateway allows resources outside your mesh to communicate to resources that are inside your mesh. The virtual gateway represents an Envoy proxy running in an Amazon ECS task, in a Kubernetes service, or on an Amazon EC2 instance. Unlike a virtual node, which represents an Envoy running with an application, a virtual gateway represents Envoy deployed by itself. For more information about virtual gateways, see [Virtual gateways](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/app-mesh/latest/userguide/virtual_gateways.html) .
