Policy: AWS > Well-Architected Tool > AWS Well-Architected Framework > Reliability > REL 02. How do you plan your network topology? > Prefer hub-and-spoke topologies over many-to-many mesh

If more than two network address spaces (for example, VPCs and on-premises networks) are connected via VPC peering, AWS Direct Connect, or VPN, then use a hub-and-spoke model, like that provided by AWS Transit Gateway.
