Hey Hrishikesh! 😊 For service discovery, you might want to check out Cloud Map: aws.amazon.com/cloud-map. I haven't personally used this before, but I believe this is AWS's equivalent of Eureka.

Thanks so much, Karl! Sorry for the frustration. 😢 I've been there before!

Can you add ssl to cloudfront? And also enable signed url /cookies for put and get requests after landing on index page ? And aslo accessing request logs?
Hi Ajay! 👋 You can host a static website in an S3 bucket without using CloudFront (you'd use the same steps from the first part of the video where we set up the bucket, upload files, and enable it for static website hosting). By pointing CloudFront to the bucket, we just speed up performance because it will cache what's in the bucket. Hope that makes sense. 😊
I'm using cloud front to serve up my s3 static html page. DNS is managed by Godaddy. I've having trouble getting connected using the naked domain. It only works if it is forwarded to a www subdomain. any ideas on how to get the naked domain to work?

If you wanted to show your cat puzzle picture to the world - and you did NOT want to use CloudFront - your alternative would have been to host the picture on your EC2 instance that is running a web server?
Hey Jason! 👋 Yep, you could host it on an EC2 instance running a web server. Or, if you only need to host static content like pictures, you could use an S3 bucket. This would be a cheaper alternative. I've got a video on creating a static website using S3 if you're interested: ruclips.net/video/H83xYoC3z4A/видео.html. Hope that helps! 😊

Hi @dibahl! 😊 I don't have an estimated date for the Solutions Architect course to be on Udemy just yet (right now it's only on Zero to Mastery: academy.zerotomastery.io/a/aff_464yrtnn/external?affcode=441520_lm7gzk-d). But I'll make myself a reminder to loop back here when it does. To answer the second question about Origin Access Control...this is used to prevent access to the S3 bucket from anywhere except CloudFront. So if someone were to try to navigate directly to a file in S3, it would be denied. But going through the CloudFront URL, it would work. Hopefully that makes sense. Thanks for watching! 😎
Can you make a tutorial for basic http authorization using S3 and Cloudfront? (user/pass request) I've stepped into many stackedoverflow posts, etc, and nothing works in AWS for me.

Looks like you have to do the encoding/transcoding separately. Here's a whitepaper that might help? d1.awsstatic.com/whitepapers/amazon-cloudfront-for-media.pdf

Thank you for such a clear and easily understandable tutorial. I re-traced your steps to the letter several times, and still getting access denied. Waited for 'Last modified' field to be a valid date. Added the policy to S3. When pasting the CloudWatch provided url into a new tab, I get 'Access Denied'. What do you think the problem could be?

403 ERROR The request could not be satisfied. Bad request. We can't connect to the server for this app or website at this time. There might be too much traffic or a configuration error.
Thanks for your video! It was all very clear! Maybe you could help me with an issue? I am working with a SPA, and following your tutorial i am able to navigate on my site. But, if I refresh on another path different from the home "/", i get the 403 error. At one point i opened my bucket to public access, and because of the configuration of the application (i created it with nextjs), i was able to fix it and enter the site on any path (for example /contact). But i don't like the idea of having my bucket publicly available, i would like to allow access only from cloudfront. Any ideas on how to solve it?
Hi Magdalena! 👋 Sorry for such a slow response! Were you able to figure this out? I think you'd need to set up a custom error response/page, and maybe also configure your Next.js app to handle client-side routing correctly. If you figured out a solution, feel free to post it here in case it helps others. 🤓
I didn't understand much from the video. What happens to DNS records? What forces request to go to Edge Location rather than the server directly to EC2? Why do I need S3 bucket?
Hi Oleg! 👋 DNS records work with CloudFront by configuring a custom domain name for your CloudFront distribution. When you create a CloudFront distribution, you get a CloudFront domain name (e.g., d12345.cloudfront.net), which you can use to access your content. However, if you want to serve your content through a custom domain name (e.g., www.example.com), you need to configure DNS records. You'd create a CNAME record that maps your custom domain to your CloudFront domain. As far as routing, CloudFront uses various factors to determine if a request should be routed to an edge location or directly to an S3 bucket or EC2 instance. 1. Requested URL: CloudFront examines the requested URL to determine which cache behavior and origin to use. You can configure cache behaviors based on specific URL patterns, such as `/images/*` or `/static/*`. Each cache behavior can be associated with a different origin. 2. Cache behavior settings: CloudFront evaluates the cache behavior settings associated with the requested URL pattern. The cache behavior includes settings like path patterns, viewer protocols (HTTP or HTTPS), query string forwarding, and more. These settings influence whether a request should be routed to an edge location or to an origin server. 3. Edge location availability: CloudFront checks the availability of edge locations when processing a request. If an edge location is nearby and has a cached copy of the requested content, the request is routed to that edge location. 4. TTL (Time-to-Live) and cache control headers: CloudFront compares the TTL and cache control headers associated with the requested content. If the content is still valid based on the TTL or cache control headers, CloudFront serves the cached version. Finally, you don't need an S3 bucket; it's just one way to host static content (inexpensively), and then you can set up CloudFront to use that bucket as its origin. If you were using an EC2 instance, you'd set that up behind a load balancer, then point CloudFront to the load balancer. Hope that helps! 😊
Nice video. Small question Does automatically created IAM roles for CloudFront-s3 also automatically gets deleted when re remove the resources from console ?
Thanks so much, Avi! 🙏🤓 No, the roles won't get deleted when you remove the resources that were using them. But things in IAM (users, user groups, roles, etc.) don't have a charge associated with them. You can manually delete them if you want, just to keep things tidy, but you won't be billed for them if you don't. Hope that helps!
Hi @NiteLifeBuzzPage!! 👋 For most of my videos, there aren't costs associated with the resources (they're usually part of the Free Tier usage). But if you leave things running, some things will eventually incur a cost, and it's never fun to get a surprise bill! So I always like to give a reminder to delete things when you're done. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching! 🙏🤓
@@TinyTechnicalTutorials Got it. I was setting up my S3 bucket to store video files for my website, so when you stated that we should delete them, I thought "this part might not be for me" LOL Thank you so much.
Hi, twin question please. 1. Cloudfront seems an awesome technology to distribute static assets at an edge location close to the user. Would this mean that ALL websites should consider setting up a cloudfront resource? Would there be a reason why this would not the case? I mean should this be a defacto standard for websites, or I'm stretching it too far 😮 2. Would it be right to say that if route 53 points to cloudfront, then the DNS queries resolve to the closest edge location. That being the case, there is no reason to setup route 53 routing policies as they would anyways get overridden by Cloudfront. Thanks in advance. Teaching in completely different league - you already knew that 😊
Thank you for the kind comments, Praveen!! 🥰 1. Yeah, CloudFront is pretty awesome. I would say generally it's the way to go for any "real" website, with maybe a few exceptions: a) Your audience is very localized (wouldn't need the benefit of global points of presence with CloudFront) b) Your files/objects change frequently (so caching doesn't help much since you'd need to frequently grab new files) c) You only need HTTP connections (you could just host things in S3, for example, with HTTP; but to get HTTPS, you'd need CloudFront) 2. I actually had to go digging on this question about Route 53 routing policies and CloudFront. I've always assumed what you said, but thought I should find the official word. Which I can't seem to find! 🤓 But did find this on Stack Overflow that seems to confirm that CloudFront will basically handle the routing for you: stackoverflow.com/questions/35300944/aws-cloudfront-and-route53. Hope that helps! Thanks for supporting the channel!! 🙏🌟😊

Hi friend! I followed every steps and I'm having the same problem right now. Could you tell me how you solved it? Thanks.
403 ERROR The request could not be satisfied. Bad request. We can't connect to the server for this app or website at this time. There might be too much traffic or a configuration error.
@@sandyad1560 am having similar issue bro
How'd you fix urs ?
Thanks for your video! It was all very clear! Maybe you could help me with an issue? I am working with a SPA, and following your tutorial i am able to navigate on my site. But, if I refresh on another path different from the home "/", i get the 403 error.
At one point i opened my bucket to public access, and because of the configuration of the application (i created it with nextjs), i was able to fix it and enter the site on any path (for example /contact). But i don't like the idea of having my bucket publicly available, i would like to allow access only from cloudfront. Any ideas on how to solve it?
Hi Magdalena! 👋 Sorry for such a slow response! Were you able to figure this out? I think you'd need to set up a custom error response/page, and maybe also configure your Next.js app to handle client-side routing correctly. If you figured out a solution, feel free to post it here in case it helps others. 🤓
I fall in love with your voice, couldn't concentrate in the content..
LOL! Oh dear!! I'm not sure if that's a good thing?? 😃
I didn't understand much from the video.
What happens to DNS records? What forces request to go to Edge Location rather than the server directly to EC2?
Why do I need S3 bucket?
Hi Oleg! 👋
DNS records work with CloudFront by configuring a custom domain name for your CloudFront distribution. When you create a CloudFront distribution, you get a CloudFront domain name (e.g., d12345.cloudfront.net), which you can use to access your content. However, if you want to serve your content through a custom domain name (e.g., www.example.com), you need to configure DNS records. You'd create a CNAME record that maps your custom domain to your CloudFront domain.
As far as routing, CloudFront uses various factors to determine if a request should be routed to an edge location or directly to an S3 bucket or EC2 instance.
1. Requested URL: CloudFront examines the requested URL to determine which cache behavior and origin to use. You can configure cache behaviors based on specific URL patterns, such as `/images/*` or `/static/*`. Each cache behavior can be associated with a different origin.
2. Cache behavior settings: CloudFront evaluates the cache behavior settings associated with the requested URL pattern. The cache behavior includes settings like path patterns, viewer protocols (HTTP or HTTPS), query string forwarding, and more. These settings influence whether a request should be routed to an edge location or to an origin server.
3. Edge location availability: CloudFront checks the availability of edge locations when processing a request. If an edge location is nearby and has a cached copy of the requested content, the request is routed to that edge location.
4. TTL (Time-to-Live) and cache control headers: CloudFront compares the TTL and cache control headers associated with the requested content. If the content is still valid based on the TTL or cache control headers, CloudFront serves the cached version.
Finally, you don't need an S3 bucket; it's just one way to host static content (inexpensively), and then you can set up CloudFront to use that bucket as its origin. If you were using an EC2 instance, you'd set that up behind a load balancer, then point CloudFront to the load balancer.
Hope that helps! 😊
Nice video. Small question
Does automatically created IAM roles for CloudFront-s3 also automatically gets deleted when re remove the resources from console ?
Thanks so much, Avi! 🙏🤓 No, the roles won't get deleted when you remove the resources that were using them. But things in IAM (users, user groups, roles, etc.) don't have a charge associated with them. You can manually delete them if you want, just to keep things tidy, but you won't be billed for them if you don't. Hope that helps!
Great vid. But it's still crazy how many steps AWS has to create a CDN with all of their services and buckets.
Thanks so much, Daniel! 🙏🌟🤓 Job security for people who know how to do it?? 😂
Thank you so much. This is awesome tutorial. I get my page show up too with cloudfront.
Awesome work! Thanks for watching, and for such a nice comment! 🤓🌟🙏
Great tutorial. I'd just like to know why we should delete the resources? You stated that it's important, but didn't say why.
Thanks.
Hi @NiteLifeBuzzPage!! 👋 For most of my videos, there aren't costs associated with the resources (they're usually part of the Free Tier usage). But if you leave things running, some things will eventually incur a cost, and it's never fun to get a surprise bill! So I always like to give a reminder to delete things when you're done. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching! 🙏🤓
@@TinyTechnicalTutorials Got it. I was setting up my S3 bucket to store video files for my website, so when you stated that we should delete them, I thought "this part might not be for me" LOL
Thank you so much.
You are so awesome and you look hot too.
Haha!! Thanks so much! 🙏🤓🌟
Hi, twin question please.
1. Cloudfront seems an awesome technology to distribute static assets at an edge location close to the user. Would this mean that ALL websites should consider setting up a cloudfront resource? Would there be a reason why this would not the case? I mean should this be a defacto standard for websites, or I'm stretching it too far 😮
2. Would it be right to say that if route 53 points to cloudfront, then the DNS queries resolve to the closest edge location. That being the case, there is no reason to setup route 53 routing policies as they would anyways get overridden by Cloudfront.
Thanks in advance. Teaching in completely different league - you already knew that 😊
Thank you for the kind comments, Praveen!! 🥰
1. Yeah, CloudFront is pretty awesome. I would say generally it's the way to go for any "real" website, with maybe a few exceptions:
a) Your audience is very localized (wouldn't need the benefit of global points of presence with CloudFront)
b) Your files/objects change frequently (so caching doesn't help much since you'd need to frequently grab new files)
c) You only need HTTP connections (you could just host things in S3, for example, with HTTP; but to get HTTPS, you'd need CloudFront)
2. I actually had to go digging on this question about Route 53 routing policies and CloudFront. I've always assumed what you said, but thought I should find the official word. Which I can't seem to find! 🤓 But did find this on Stack Overflow that seems to confirm that CloudFront will basically handle the routing for you: stackoverflow.com/questions/35300944/aws-cloudfront-and-route53.
Hope that helps! Thanks for supporting the channel!! 🙏🌟😊
Thank you for this video !!
Thank YOU for watching!! 😊🙏🤓🌟
Well articulated and explained, soo easy to follow through, thank you so much! I will be book marking this one for when it comes for me to getting CloudFront Setup.
Thanks so much for the kind words, @BeNetCoders!! 🙏🤓🌟 Glad it was helpful!
Your videos are simple, and to the point. Do you have any videos on a aws mini project from ground zero? TY for the hard work put in this.
Thanks for the nice comment, Rajendra! 😊 Glad you're enjoying the videos. For project ideas, I actually *just* published a video with 10 ideas for those: ruclips.net/video/x7YjX2_zGsk/видео.html. Hope it helps, and good luck!
