MediaConvert is used for video transcoding. The source video is converted into two different kinds of output: MP4 and HLS (allowing users access to multiple resolutions they can switch between during playback). MediaConvert also generates thumbnails by extracting multiple evenly distributed frames in the video to provide a preview capability.
Amazon CloudFront
Amazon CloudFront is AWS’ content delivery network (CDN). CloudFront provides content creators a simple and straightforward solution for video delivery with in-built caching mechanisms. A content creator simply needs to create a new distribution and select the right S3 buckets as targets, and CloudFront does the rest of the work.
