 ## Connect to the internet with a NAT gateway
 
 NAT Gateway is recommended for all production workloads where you need to connect to a public endpoint over the internet. Outbound connectivity takes place right away upon deployment of a NAT gateway with a subnet and at least one public IP address. No routing configurations are required to start connecting outbound with the NAT gateway. The NAT gateway becomes the subnet’s default route to the internet.

After the new NAT gateway is functional in the new region, you delete the old instance in the previous region.
