A VPC endpoint service is a cloud service or a private service that can be accessed through a VPC endpoint.

There are two types of VPC endpoint services: gateway and interface.

Gateway VPC endpoint services are created only for cloud services.
Interface VPC endpoint services can be created for both cloud services and your private services. Cloud services are configured as VPC endpoint services by the O&M personnel by default. However, you need to create VPC endpoint services for your private services.

Gateway VPC Endpoint Services

Gateway VPC endpoint services are configured from cloud services by the system. You do not have the permissions to configure such VPC endpoint services but can select them when creating a VPC endpoint.

Supported cloud services vary in different regions. For details, see the services that can be configured on the management console.

**Table 1** Supported gateway VPC endpoint services
VPC Endpoint Service	Category	Type	Example	Description
OBS	Cloud service	Gateway	eu-de: com.t-systems.otc.eu-de.obs eu-nl: com.t-systems.otc.eu-nl.obs com.t-systems.otc.eu-nl.obs-internet	Select the endpoint service ending with obs if you want to access OBS using its private address. Select the endpoint service ending with obs-internet if you want to access OBS using its private address.

Interface VPC Endpoint Services

Interface VPC endpoint services are mainly configured from:

Cloud services. You do not have the permissions to configure such VPC endpoint services but can select them when creating a VPC endpoint.
Your private services

Supported cloud services vary in different regions. For details, see the services that can be configured on the management console.

**Table 2** Supported interface VPC endpoint services
VPC Endpoint Service	Category	Type	Example	Description
DNS	Cloud service	Interface	eu-de: com.t-systems.otc.eu-de.dns eu-nl: com.t-systems.otc.eu-nl.dns	Select the endpoint service ending with dns if you want to access DNS over private networks.
API Gateway	Cloud service	Interface	eu-de: com.t-systems.otc.eu-de.apig	Select the endpoint service ending with apig if you want to access API Gateway using a VPC endpoint. Only the eu-de region supports the API gateway VPC endpoint service.
ELB	Users' private service	Interface	None	Select a load balancer as the backend resource if your services receive high traffic and demand high reliability and disaster recovery (DR) performance.
ECS	Users' private service	Interface	None	VPC endpoint services work as servers.
BMS	Users' private service	Interface	None	VPC endpoint services work as servers. NOTE: The BMS type will be discarded. The ELB type is recommended.
VIP	Users' private service	Interface	None	Backend resources of this type serve as virtual IP addresses. NOTE: The VIP type will be discarded. The ELB type is recommended.
