If you work with AWS infrastructure in a VPC, sometimes it makes sense to use a VPN to access/manage VPC instances that don't have a public IP (e.g., app servers behind an ELB). Of course, one could also just tunnel through an exposed SSH server in the VPC, but a VPN server can offer a little more convenience and flexibility.
