# Connector Connection

Connector Connection in Google Cloud represents a network link created through Serverless VPC Access. It allows serverless environments such as Cloud Run, App Engine, or Cloud Functions to securely connect to resources inside a Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) network. This connection provides private IP access to databases, services, or other workloads running in the VPC, enabling secure communication without exposing traffic to the public internet.
