Since we can add the api at cloud front origin and new behaviour for that api origin and can access with alisa name of distro , then what again we need to use custom domain? Since we already have a cloud front alis for access front end application and can use this for api as with new orgin and non default behaviour?
Thank you! IaC is something that I'm really passionate about and for sure something that I want to make more videos about. Writing IaC using CDK is something that I have been thinking about for some time now 😄 It may require some more research on my part tho, to make sure I can produce some good quality videos about this 🙌
Nice video. Wanted to check one thing regarding https. So when you hit your custom domain did you supply https or did it get redirected to https automatically. For me I have manually add https every time. Any idea?
Thank you! 😄 In my case (I believe) the browser added HTTPS automatically, since the API Gateway won't accept requests over normal HTTP (port 80). I hope this answer your question? I saw this post on stackoverflow which discusses redirecting http to https for API Gateways and why you may not want or need to do that for APIs: stackoverflow.com/a/47373353
Hi, Thank you! 😄 As far as I know, adding a custom domain shouldn't cause any latency issue (at least it has not for me), but you should consider if you want to use the Regional or Edge-optimized setting when creating the custom domain. These settings can have an impact on the latency. I hope this was helpful 😄

Hello Endre, Thank you for simplifying these steps. Much Appreciated your efforts
Thank you, I’m glad you found it helpful!😄
Nice video! Hope will have some code based videos in the future like how to use aws cdk to build these aws services!

Hey Endre..Thanks for the video..Simple and informative.. Could you please tell me would this custom domain cause any latency issue ?
