Answer
Each project gets a dedicated bridge network. Containers communicate via service names, keeping environments isolated.
Quick Answer
Compose creates a private virtual network for your project. Services on the same network can reach each other by service name as the hostname (e.g., the web service reaches the DB as "db"). Services on different Compose networks or the host can't reach each other by default — clean isolation out of the box.
