Amazon CloudFront is a content distribution network that speeds up distribution of your static and dynamic web content such as .html, .css, .js, and image files to your users. CloudFront delivers your content through a worldwide network of data centers called edge locations. When a user requests content that you’re serving with CloudFront, the request is routed to the edge location that provides the fastest response and best possible performance.
- If the content is already in the edge location with the lowest latency, CloudFront delivers it immediately.
- If the content is not in that edge location, CloudFront retrieves it from an origin that you’ve defined—such as an Amazon S3 bucket, a MediaPackage channel, or an HTTP server (for example, a web server) that you have identified as the source for the definitive version of your content.
With extensive experience in Modern Software Design, serverless architectures and containerization, TrackIt specializes in designing Amazon CloudFront solutions that are tailored to meet our clients’ business needs. TrackIt uses “Well-Architected” practices as a key design underpinning all its AWS solution implementations.
At TrackIt, we have experience in website and application hosting utilizing CloudFront, both in combination with S3 or with other origin storage environments.
TrackIt engineers also have experience with Lambda@Edge (special lambdas only used by CloudFront) to handle customization, redirection and security of your various requests, as well as CloudFront Functions to support event-driven architectures.
