Configuring a Private Link Cluster (Hands On)

https://cnfl.io/cloud-networking-101-module-9 | In this exercise with Dennis Wittekind (Customer Success Technical Architect, Confluent), you will provision a Private Link cluster inside of Confluent Cloud. You will do this by provisioning a multi-AZ Confluent Cloud network with Private Link access and provisioning a cluster within this network. You will then create AWS VPC endpoints in a private hosted zone that are associated with the Confluent Cloud Private Link cluster. Finally, you will then configure UI access for the cluster, produce to a cluster topic using the Confluent Cloud fully managed Datagen Source connector, and then consume records from the topic using the `confluent` CLI from an EC2 instance located inside of the AWS VPC.
